[QUOTE="nohope587, post: 1316662, member: 3887"]Wow people are still reading my thread after all this time. Yes I'm still alive Landed today and went straight to the Houston Money Show. Just got back from Mexico in time for the last day of the Houston money show. Business was slow. I only made half a circuit before I Had blown all my money. Some dealers were nice and willing to chat even if they had nothing of interest to me. Other live on another planet. I saw several Nice 2 Cent coins in PCGS holders with CAC stickers. In particular there was one 1865 MS64RD coin it was nice and I concurred with the CAC/PCGS grade. Grey sheet was around $225 for RB and Numismedia says FMV for RD about $800. Asking price $1800! I choked and put it down really fast. A similar story with a Nice CAC NGC 1864. Dealers that think just because two companies agree on the grade they can double the price really make me mad. The very next table had a PCGS MS64 BN 1865 for $170 so I bought that one. My second purchase was a raw coin Marked RB UNC $90 It not RB and I would put it Maybe MS60 but it was a KF-F2-TPD (BR2382 FL65-lolr) I offered $80 and it was accepted. I was more then pleased to and this variety to my set. I generally don't like big shows as it seems to bring out the worst dealers as well as the good ones. I wish I had had more cash on me but if I had I would have spent it.
