Let's see your newest acquisitions!

I had some Morgan's before, didn't think I'd want to get any but I spent some time checking them out. I don't have an agenda or any certain year, I'll just look till one cry out to me

Most 1881 S MS65-66 Morgans are nice. You (most likely) have nothing to worry about.

 

Didn't have a lot of small coins so I saw these they all have little damage but were cheap.

 

Yeah, I get it...

Truth is, I did pay over the price guide by about 15-20%.

However, the price guide is $85 for an 1892 in MS63, and I paid $100, so my premium of another $15 is essentially my lunch money.

At MS64 this sits at $160 in the NGC Coin Explorer price charts. After looking at examples of MS64's on Heritage, this seems comparable, even with the big scratch at 1:00 on the reverse. The other 64's have flaws too. Other MS63's - they just look awful.

Here's an image of the same coin from the NGC Certificate Verification site. I'd never buy that.

 

What? No shimmy, shake?

 

Accidental Cherrypick. FS-501 RPM.

 

I have a 1901 IHC coming from another member (who has a post between yours and this one). While I don’t think I can improve on his photos, I will try to get you some movin’. Stay tuned!

 

These are not the easiest to find in this grade.

 

It's a great coin. Thanks for giving me a shot.

 

Sorry, I was trying to make a joke because that penny was so beautiful. Love the coloring. Yes, I would imagine you would have paid over price guide due to the magnificent toning. No offense intended.

 

A new 1913-D Buffalo and a real nice 1943 Mercury.

 

Got this at a Great Collections auction for slightly less than the original issuance price.

 

I waited on the sidewalks of Chicago to flip mine for a $2400 profit.

 

Go look at eBay. There are plenty of totally underwater sellers who will probably have theirs buried with them.

 

Day 1 I didn't get in line in time.
Day 2 I made $2400 on one coin.
Day 3 I made $1100 on my one coin (no more 1st day issue holders, so price dropped.
Day 4 I started to get in line again and they cancelled the sale. I was glad. I was exhausted. Sad thing was I had an amazing room at the Westin that I wasn't using except to shower and nap. Haha!

 

Even with sensible dealers, they are still asking premiums for the ANA convention label. Amazing.

 

What's the coin being released this year?

 

I think it’s the 2018-S silver eagle proof. Mint has already said it’s unlimited mintage and unlimited orders. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong.

 

It's not an 1827...heck, it's not even a half dollar, but I like it.
