    I've been retired. And yet, here I go, buying more and more.:D

    LOL - I am trying to keep the buying down, but some of the ones I got left appear to be expensive even in lower grades.

    Yeah. I'm pretty much resigned I'm not buying a 1893S Morgan that looks like it's been in a woodchipper either.:D

    Exactly. I want something I like even if it is a lower grade. Some of the ones I need add are easy to find but I can't find one to add I like. So the hunt continues. One or two might get upgraded if I run into something nicer.

    If I had to keep only one, I would keep the small motto.

    Here are the two I have. I cherry picked a Small Motto in EF from a dealer when I was dealer. Yea, I know, you are supposed to tell people what they have. BUT when you are a dealer, you should know better. It's Red Book variety for goodness sakes!

    Love those two. I agree about dealers - they should definitely know that one.
