Message:: [QUOTE="Elbesaar, post: 1087426, member: 26007"]I had the only table in all of FUN with a huge selection of Barber Halves - 99% PCGSmost graded VF 25- XF 45 - a few nice AU's - some F12-15's. At Dealer Set Up, I solda 1901-S in AU 50 - which was striking - and a 1905-O in XF 40 - both PCGS graded.The pair netted $2800 to the same customer. Also had a great 1904-S in PCGS 50 out of the case a dozen times - but the asking price was very high - and rightfully so as itwas the best looking AU 50 out there - bar none. I'm holding out for the right money on it. I also sold my triplicate 1915-P in PCGS 58 - with sreaming luster - it went for a little morethan my AU 55 sold for last year. Still very strong money though.  The consignor of the XF 45 set at FUN is a friend of mine and he advised me to sit on my setsfor a few more years - the price increases are about to hit - and "they're a better investmentthan Gold ". The XF 45 set was a quadrupple set of his - and as I already sold off three otherVF-AU sets this year - the demand is there - the supply is drying up for the keys in VF-AU. Another friend has just started a nice VG 10 - F-15 set - all PCGS certified - all nice crusty coins -and all cracked out for a Dansco - and he's having a ball - for not alot of money. My advice is to start a set in your grade range of choice - all with the same look - regardless of the grade range - it'll be a fantastic assembledge - and a lot of fun to boot.[/QUOTE]
