Firstly, great work on completing your Buffalo set! Congrats! As far as the value of the series increasing as the centennial approaches, that's...
Thanks, illini! I was so glad to FINALLY come across a no-problem G-VG 1909-S Lincoln in a slab. The realized price was a pleasant surprise....
Do you think this is actually a good time to start buying these key coins, before the values return to their highs -- or even go higher -- as the...
