I hear ya man, but I'm saving money (this year until...) for a trip to Ireland & Scotland. The wife has "lowered the boom" on my @$$. It's going to be a lean year (Numismatically Speaking) I'm afraid. LMAO __________________ A few things to remember, Certification and Attribution are Absolute and Definitive.

Viper, it adds up fast, even at 2005-2006 prices. I don't know if you or some of the other/older members recall, but I was averaging 2+ of these babies (A WEEK) for over a year straight, along with my other odd numismatic purchases. As you can imagine it added up. But, business was booming to the point we had to hire help. For now it's turned into a wonderful investment which I hope to never have to rely on if the wolf comes sniffing at out door.

They will apreciate it but it was $400 out of the coin budget.   01-31-2008, 02:48 PM   #8 (permalink) vipergts2 Jester in hobby of kings     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Iowa Posts: 5,386 My Mood: I wish I had got back into collecting before the prices had went up. Hopefully they will come back down a little so I can add those bust halves and quarters to the collection. The more I see them the more I like them.   01-31-2008, 12:21 PM   #9 (permalink) Treashunt The Other Frank     Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: New York Posts: 16,668 How about this seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/1832-P-GEM-Slabb...QQcmdZViewItem Certified as MS-65 by USCG (United States Coast Guard?) __________________ The Other Frank "Buy The Book Before The Coin!" http://www.whitmanbooks.com/Default....wUpcoming_1208   01-31-2008, 12:25 PM   #10 (permalink) Bonedigger Numismatist     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: South Dakota Posts: 7,885 Quote: Originally Posted by Treashunt How about this seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/1832-P-GEM-Slabb...QQcmdZViewItem Certified as MS-65 by USCG (United States Coast Guard?)

It looks like he has sold many cleaned/overgraded coins and quite a few people have called him on it.   01-31-2008, 03:01 PM   #12 (permalink) budgood Forever the Student     Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: 41.69 (41°41') | -83.61 (-83°36') Posts: 973 My Mood: "They" are great guys to deal with Bone- Ive known "them" for a while & do a lot of wholesale business with "them" -- I am also in no way affiliated with "them" but I agree they are great dealers .   01-31-2008, 03:04 PM   #13 (permalink) Bonedigger Numismatist     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: South Dakota Posts: 7,885 Quote: Originally Posted by budgood "They" are great guys to deal with Bone- Ive known "them" for a while & do a lot of wholesale business with "them" -- I am also in no way affiliated with "them" but I agree they are great dealers .

Ben Well considering I am a day late - you can always PM me with the sellers name, I can always use a good recommendation. I might have been able to recognize them yesterday, but sigh, it was a late night. My problem is keeping the ones I like under a $100 - and in the f/vf range. Not sure I can do that for every date. Not sure where I am going yet with these, but I do like bust coinage. __________________ the other mark Best Baan Community Empty airtite seeks unwanted coins.
