    I've got 2 coins on request from my IHC dealer.
    I only recently found out that there are 2 varieties of the 1886 IHC.
    Unfortunately the one I currently have is in the bank and I had never taken a picture of it.
    But I DO have the PCGS slab number so hopefully they will have a picture of it and I'll know which one to buy.
    (I just realized that possibility.)

    Checking!

    Well, that possibility just got shot down.
    The PCGS number I have doesn't exist!?

    @kanga, I hope you wrote the number down wrong.

    I did my search differently a second time and the coin popped up.
    Mine is an 1886 Type 2 in PCGS MS-64 BN.
    That saved me a lot since the Type 2 is the more expensive variety.

    I e-mailed my dealer and modified my request.

    I know that I'll buy the 1Oz Silver Kookaburra when it comes out, but that's not until October.

    Before then, I have no idea. I don't really plan my purchases ahead of time very much. Usually I'm browsing and WHAM!!! Oh oh...

    I lack two coins to complete a Peace Dollar set, all graded by PCGS. It'll be one of those, I'm sure, unless I happen across something I just HAVE to buy.

    I bought it back in November, but this is the first coin I've received in 2020. It just arrived today from PCGS.

    Actual coin received today. :) Nice coin to finish my initial 1800's type set.

    Most likely a 2020 Silver Eagle. Patiently waiting for my local dealer to get them.

    Great minds think alike !! :D

    I don't know if it will be my FIRST, but most likely my 1st Biggie of 2020. Hopefully, not the last. :D

    Are you looking for any particular mintage/year ?

    Keep us/me posted on that, it's not on my immediate or near-term future purchase list, but eventually I want to get one.

    Any MS grade ? No interest in a good-looking AU58 ?
     
  19. Another roll of .9 JFK halves to throw in the crown royal sack. Tacky I know.

    Apparently a 1950D Jefferson in a newer PCI holder "MS67" - I forgot I had thrown a $15 bid out there.
