    Yeah that quarter eagle cost me more than my Saint Gaudens and luckily it was still at the shop a year later when I finally had the money! thumbupp.gif

    Same. I've got 34 British Empire full sovereigns (1/4 ouncers). I need to bring them home from the bank vaults to catalogue but I'm not sure which of 2 vaults they are in and both boxes are jammed full of silver US coinage and weigh a ton. The worst part is I have to use a step ladder to pull them out and it's all I can do to keep from dropping them. The sovereigns are from the 1900-1928 era. I don't know if any have any numismatic value or not, or are simply bullion. That's why I need a list and a note of condition..........but it's not really a problem to complain about. o_O

    Here is a horrible photo of a 1917 Perth mint I took a couple of years ago.

    Lotus 123? You realize you can download those files into Excel with a little copy and paste and tweaking? I too am old and weaning myself off Lotus was struggle of stubbornness and trepidation, but that was 15 years ago. :p

    I have one 10th ounce gold coin that I bought myself for my 60th birthday 10 years ago. Don't think I'll have it much longer since it's worth about three times what I paid for it.

    Yep gold is amazing like that, even some Mexican gold dos pesos coins have tripled in price! :D I bought two for $60 each a few years ago and they're selling now for over $190 today and it's not even US gold! tmoney - Copy.gif
