My 2016 ASE

This country needs a lot of things, but considering how "popular" the last two renditions of the dollar coin were, I think a $5 coin would fly about as high as an anvil for circulation. Maybe a special proof issue for collectors would be popular.

LOL I'm still chuckling about "fly high as an anvil" thankx for the belly laugh!!!

 

Just a natural born wit, I suppose.

 

Very nice Mr. Green, use to get 20 and send 10 in PCGS and put to 70's on Ebay. now i just get eight, can't compete with the big boys. so for my set i bought a PCGS first strike, special label for $64.95 with shipping mine cost about $55ea.

 

Got these two for less than if I submitted them myself

 

Totally agree with that.

 

Meh. PR62 CAM

 

Brothers.....raw is where it's at. OGP....... Nothing rarer than that........especially when all you folks are sending them in to be graded. Give me a nice, comely OGP........

 

The only problem with O.G.P. is they take up too much space.

John.

 

I like my silver eagle proofs in OGP too, Ken. I got the reverse proofs slabbed because it was the only way I could find them.

 

I agree with that for most coins unless rare or of higher value... there's a reason why they put it in there

 

I also got one already slabbed. And a raw one too.



What's not to like? Beautifully minted, one-year-only edge lettering, and low mintage (probably under 500,000 which is low for a recent ASE Proof).

BTW, the edge lettering is more clearly visible in the slab. Whereas, the side of the raw ASE plastic capsule distorts the edge lettering.

 

I like mine in a Dansco Album, I know a few of the members think I'm crazy for doing it, and they my be right.

I know what you mean. I've got some nice MS examples in my Littleton typset album.

 

My one is still sitting in it's unopened package.

 

I love that song and spent years trying to figure out what the heck they were saying!

 

A common problem in the rock era.

 

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sittin' in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high
Bootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the DA man
When I heard this woman sing a song
A pair of 45's made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just-a 5'9, beautiful, tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that long cool woman had it all
I saw her heading to the table
Like a tall walking big black cat
When Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at
Then suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A-jumping out of doors and tables
When I heard somebody shootin' a gun
Well the…

 

Hollies. MY God you guys have opened a window.

 

I don't know what that was but it was pretty good
