Easily. The coins were properly graded prior to 2004 by the standards in use at that time. They were graded properly again a point (or more)...
Would you plan a vacation around a Coin Show? Well, I planned my first honeymoon around a coin show, so....yes. What! Doesn't everyone go to...
A civil war set... [IMG] [IMG] [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG] I gotta get these out of the SDB and take new pics now that they are...
