First show ever today, what an experience and glad I didn't bring alot of money. Met Stainless, Silverstruck and Borgovan and was glad I did . Hung out with Stainless and Silverstruck for awhile, then picked up a couple '57B silver certs (very weak center fold) and a Fugio . No one I asked had UHR for sale. Also saw a $400 1968? proof nickel dark violet/blue chrome look totally covering Obv. Awesome. Next time I'll have to bring my list and prices to pay. Some pics:
Great Silver Certs myfriend! It is always cool to meet some of the folks you talk to so much via the net huh?
Money sure does not last long does it??
Thanks for posting the Silver Certs, congrats and Great pick ups!!

Are you sure the continental dollar is real? It looks to be cast. Or dug up. But I would have to go with the first of the two...

Thanks. Yeah, it was great to meet. It wasn't like meeting a stranger where you have to try and figure out what to say after awhile. I didn't take much with me, so I did good with the self restraint! My dad tried to talk me into going half on a 5lb silver medal and would cover me for my half. I think he wanted it, but didn't want my mom to kill him . Had to pull him off a bunch of times and he still bought alot more than me. Caught the fugio when trying to leave in the 1/2 off bin for 2.25 and scribbled out the replica with MS paint.( i figured it would be freaky would call me on that) Getting closer to a real one all the time.

He's been dubbed "The Snail" so that makes him a wise young snail.
