I am totally addicted to Shane's coins---picked this one up tonight. Looking forward to getting that package soon.
Great looking toner you've got there! Shane has been a great friend of mine for more than 7 years, and he is as honest as the day is long. His knowledge of toners is outstanding, and now that he is selling coins full-time, you will surely see many, many more in his listings. Here is one that has special meaning for me because it was a gift from Shane. It's in an old Fattie. Chris
That is gorgeous!! LOVE the rainbow on the reverse. That is one magnificent toner. We should start a "Kryptonite" thread of all the beautiful coins he's sold to members. I couldn't agree more with your evaluation of Shane--although I don't know him personally, I have bought several coins from him at auction, and he's one of the very best dealers on E bay, especially in terms of toned/specialty coins. You are lucky to have him as a friend!
Well, since the FUN Show 2013 is less than 5 months away, maybe you should plan to attend so I can introduce you to him. As a matter of fact, the NGC Luncheon is always held on Saturday, so maybe you would like to be my guest. Shane and I usually have a table with all of the rowdiest bunch from the NGC forums. It's more fun that way! Chris
Now, I like that idea. Is it in South Florida? Please PM me. Thanks. OH, just looked--ORLANDO!! My neck of the woods.
