<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ddddd, post: 24825155, member: 22377&quot;]Thank you!</p><p><br /></p><p>The Bust Half was an eBay find. The seller had it priced high but took a reasonable offer (still well above guide but acceptable for the level of eye appeal).</p><p><br /></p><p>The Isabella was a fortunate find in an unc details holders (questionable color). I didn&#039;t see anything wrong with it (nor did anyone on here when I did a guess the grade). It went with one of my PCGS subs and got the AU 58. I was hoping for a 63 but I&#039;ll take the straight grade (interesting that PCGS felt it was unc one time and then circulated the next but they might be more forgiving when it is a details grade).</p><p><br /></p><p>The Whipple Dollar I learned about on the forums (I believe CU). And how could I pass up a &quot;gold&quot; Morgan to add to my set. </p><p><br /></p><p>The Trade Dollar I had appreciated since I first saw it. I was glad that I received the chance to pick it up once available. It truly looks like a proof (and was more affordable than an actual proof).</p><p><br /></p><p>The Guatemala Peso is certainly a gem. The MS 62 had outstanding luster and was semi-pl but this one is way more PL and deserves the grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your Japanese Yen is nice as well. I&#039;ve looked at quite a few over the years and some tend to have weaker luster or areas that have unappealing toning. These I like as blast white (don&#039;t mind rainbow toned but those are virtually nonexistent).</p><p><br /></p><p>The Jadwigas are surprisingly tough to find certified. I eventually ended up with three but sold two others as this one was the best. Note that selling them was almost as difficult as buying (seems to be a small supply and fairly small demand too-which was somewhat unexpected as they have a great design and I figured there were plenty collectors with Polish roots that would want one). I&#039;m sure you will find one that fits your set soon enough.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the Peacock, that was me who picked up your example. I liked mine more so I parted ways with yours. But I can still make the claim of being a temporary steward of one of Lord M&#039;s coins. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
