<p>[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2340932, member: 71723"]Well, that is the kind of auction it was. There are a gazillion of them here. Also, slabbing is VERY uncommon here. Collectors just don't do it here very much, even advanced collectors don't. Our local coin club (see my sig below) has about 50% who have never owned a computer. This is strictly retro old school country, my man. Also, this is the east coast, within 80 miles of Philly. D and S coins are unusually rare compared with the rest of the country. And really? A 1913D Type II in XF is common?!? What color is the sky on your planet? The whole point of my exercise is a nicely matched set of Buffs in a Dansco album. It is the search that is the whole point.</p><p><br /></p><p>There were over 1000 coins in this sale and not a single one was slabbed or photographed. Many were keys to series, and several topped 4 figures. That's everyday life in Lancaster County, PA, sir.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
