That Trade Dollar is freaking awesome. I have seen a couple of PL trade dollars over the past few months, but never a DMPL. I wonder what NGC...
That's really cool, congrats on quite an achievement!
You got that coin for a very good price. I would have gladly paid $150 for it. Shane is a very good seller, and a friend of mine, who usually has...
Because no one cares.
PL's in general are very addictive ;) Heritage is a really good company, and they offer a tremendous selection of coins. I'm not sure what...
DJ, those are fantastic. I know I say that every time you post them, but.... Anyways, I'll post another of mine. This is without a doubt the...
With my well known love of full strike, I appreciate a Full Talon - but I wouldn't want to see it designated. No one cares about the SBA, so a FT...

I won't be there, its the wrong side of the continent for me. But I have been and will continue to watch the Heritage auction live streaming on...
