I still have no issue owning rough coins - but I have slowed down my buying considerably trying to acquire some nicer examples. [ATTACH=full]1272410[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1272412[/ATTACH] Really happy with the two upgrades below... combined for under $100.. which I thought was quite good as I have always kept my eye open for upgrades.
