I have ordered over 100 proofs from the US Mint. Every one of them was PR69 DCAM or better. Zero problems. I certainly empathize with your...
Aw, heck. Looks like I broke another unwritten rule. According to Spock, the coins I picked are not high-end coins !!! ;)
Thanks, L, but I'm afraid I broke an unwritten rule. One may buy any coin whether available or not... but in my case, at least one of the coins...
That's only $999,998. Where ya gonna splurge the other two bucks ? ;)
Awright gentlemen, I'm ready to step up to the table. I came to play, so git ready !!! 1899 $20 Liberty PR67 DCAM $266,500 - Proof Gold. 'Nuff...
NumisMedia price for that thing is only $5,200 ? Hmmmm.... it's a good thing you left that extra $154,800 on the table. You're gonna need it to...
Absolutely fabulous ! But hey... you already knew that ! ;) MS66. Would NGC give it a star ? You bet they would. I certainly would. If not...

Interesting thread. Thanks, Catbert ! I personally enjoy the Seated Liberty design. I'm less impressed by the 1876 criticism : But isn't that...
Deal me in. Absolutely. :thumb: Where else can I get a Draped Bust PR69 DCAM for 10% over bullion ? One of my big draws to this whole coin...
(get ready for sarcasm, everybody) And to think I've been wasting my time and money at so-called "reputable" dealers like Heritage and Stack's !...

I gotta re-pre-ZENT for the 1837 Large Cent. No, it doesn't have the most outrageous toning when compared to the other coins in the OP....
How are things changing for you ? What is different about your coin collecting today compared with one month ago ? Six months ago ? Two years ago...
