    Yeah they said AT. I'll have to try and dig the envelope out. I keep it with all my old paper wrappers like I keep from my old 50s mint sets that had fantastic toning too.

    Me either. I tried to get a hold of a few sets 56. the pawn Manager told me It was against the law, for even Himself to reduce the Price of his evaluation. Has anyone ever heard of this? IWL

    No because it's a lie, I've negotiated with pawn shop dealers plenty of times. Unless your state/country has some weird law that no one has heard of.

    I kept trying to tell him he was mistaken or confused, other wise the business that he worked for was against the law. -giving 30% of somethings value, then selling it for 150% profit. he stood his ground, they lost my business, especially when he is in the store.

    You should of seen the H- 10 proof I found at the show. The dealer who I know he's local had it $700. He wanted in an old soap bar ngc holder. It was so blue toned it was black....yet light came off it like a mirror. Both sides were toned this way. I didn't even take a second look at it was to deep for my pockets at that time of day.

    Went to a junk silver dealer and asked for some silver half dollars. He gave me some Walking Liberties, Franklins, Kennedies...and then he threw in one of these:

    It's my first Seated Liberty Half dollar, an 1860-O! Very happy.

    I've seen an 1861 PR63 CAM Seated dollar that was the same way. If I had had a few thousand dollars burning a hole in my pocket, I might have given it a home.
