[QUOTE="keemao, post: 1961103, member: 43972"]Here is one of my stories. Had to do a copy and paste from an earlier post since I am at the airport on the way to Chicago. True story, though. One auction I attended earlier this year had a pic of a couple of 1892-O Morgans that looked UNC to me. I checked what they were worth, went early to inspect the stuff before the auction and scored 10 UNC 1892-O Morgans that went to NGC for grading...all coming back MS64+, 64, 63 and one 62. As an aside, I only paid about $650 for all ten. I sold one on eBay, 8 at the June Baltimore show 2013 and kept one that went to CAC after the Florida show in June and got the bean. I won't see it until I get home from Chi on the 9th but I am happy it got it. Another cool win was another coin auction in NC that I regularly attended. Two trade dollars, 1878-S toned that graded MS62 and 1877-S that came back cleaned. Paid about $200 each for them.[/QUOTE]
