    My best "Wimpy" interpretation:

    I'll gladly pay you tomorrow for one of your gold coins today!

    Awesome sets.

    That is SWEET!!! I wish I were smart enough to make that St.Gauden photo larger. That appears to be a spectacular piece.

    Lovely coins - and an additional vote for a larger pic of the St. Gauden!

    No real goal except assembling a nice set. Studying the coins and choosing the coins was a blast. I’m not worried about my “competitive standing.” Go look at the top 20 or so sets. They’re way out of my league!

    If he's like me, it's a way of keeping track of your collection. My 'Bookers' and 'Carvers' are posted on that venue. Helps me immensely, for a forgetful Jones......

    Congrats! These days, that's quite an accomplishment.

    I had 'em all in 63 back in the early days of the Registry, when bullion was dirt cheap. Bought my 1908 NM Saint in a PCGS OGH 63 holder for 400 bucks delivered! Those were the days!

    Nowadays I can't afford the melt price of anything bigger than a quarter eagle.

    Sure wish I'd kept that reg set now!

    *sigh*

    Late-1980's, huh ?

    That same coin probably cost $1,500 a few years later when Saint prices took off.
