[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 3895327, member: 73489"]Interesting as I am going to FUN for the 1st time in a few months. So going with some $$$ for Ancients and then coming out with a Platinum Proof Eagle and the other stuff is interesting. [I]Did they just grab your attention, like stuff they put at the checkout counter at the supermarket ? Had you considered buying them before ? Did you not find enough quantity or quality of Anceints to spend the $$$ you brought ? [/I] [B][COLOR=#0000ff]I went to a local coin show a year or so ago...didn't see any coins I wanted for the $$$ and bought a bill and since then I'd say 90% of my purchases and 50% of my $$$ have been for bills[/COLOR][/B] -- after YEARS of not even looking at them for more than a minute or two at shows (the only bill I ever really wanted was a Gold Certificate). And a few years ago, I was looking for a Saint or even a pricey Morgan...saw nothing worth parting my $$$ with...and bought the 2013-W Reverse Proof !![I] :D[/I] You have to be disciplined ![/QUOTE]
