I read some where that they did it so you could put any other variety into to fill the slot without it being an 1839/6. What surprised me that...
Well - the correct color grey is very nice in that range. Some of the whiter ones are nice but just not as nice as a good solid gun metal grey.
Who graded it? No offense from those pictures it looks XF details to me. I can't really judge the wear on the coin to see how much or what the...
I have gotton some runs of coins in the 80's,90' early 1900's in VF shape for around 10 dollars. I did have to bid on quiet a few lots before...
Those coins would be in the Bill Gates income range. BUT I would be more than happy to drool on some slabs. :)

I am with giorgio11 on this one. How did you do on the sites - were they major auctions, or tuesday sunday type auction? How prompt were the...
Just look at it as a way to collect a nice set at VG prices. :) To me the only complaint I have is the passes the tpg's sometime give to key dates.
Cool and interesting pickups. I like the stories with them.
The local shop I use is owned by an older gentleman, but I would not call him cranky. Even all the younger guys are willing to chat and talk -...
Better yet buy saints graded around 64 or 65 grade. :) Other than that I think Chris covered it.
