This can be misinterpreted in so many ways :devil:

 

I've wanted a Binion Hoard Morgan for a while, and I found one that tickled my fancy. It is on the way!

 

Beautiful Lincoln , looks like it could maybe make a 67 Rd at NGC .

 

Awesome WL! you just missed him too much eh?

 

Delicious.

 

1895 Peru UN DINO

 

Nice, I have a type set of them. Great designs.

 

Lovely type.

 

This was my last purchase at the PNNA show, but the first one I will share. I got this nice MS Columbian Expo half for a great price. This thing has blazing luster! A no brainer.
I got this 53 Half for a good price. A dealer I met last year from N'awlins LA came up to the PNNA show all the way in Tukwilla WA. He's a cool guy and we got to talking as I was looking through his inventory and found this one. It was labeled at $60 and he gave me a great deal on it.

This Buff was labeled at XF and I personally thought it was an AU, so I bought it at $2.


A nicely toned Lincoln from the same year


My first OGH slab in my collection.

This Walker resides in a green label no-line Fatty. I'm happy to call it mine.


Not too sure why I bought this one, just felt I couldn't say no at $10

 

These are my "Big" purchases. Friday, I thought it would be a good time to buy my first gold. We stopped to return some materials to a coin shop on our way to the PNNA show, and this one caught my eye. I've wanted to buy a Dos Pesos gold for quite a while now. I immediately had them take it out and give me a price of only $2 over melt. I pulled out a silver eagle and $50 and asked if they'd take a partial trade.
Though gold has dropped from $1504 when I bought it to almost $1330 yesterday, I'm still glad I bought this piece because it was my crossing of a threshold I have been dancing around.



I also was on the search for three coins but only could buy one.
On my hit list were:
Trade Dollar
MS Seated Dime
Proof Mercury Dime

When I was on my search, I found quite a few examples of each, but most were out of my price range. I stumbled across a dealer that I ended up talking to for about an hour until the show closed about Summer Seminar. I looked at this coin and danced around the dealer's tables looking for a better deal, and ended up buying this one for $115 and a trade worth $45 for a total of $160ish.



The fact it is in an OGH makes me smile even more to be the proud owner of it.

 

Beautiful pick ups Caz. You have been kicking it up a notch lately. BAM!

 

Caz definitely stepping up his game. Love the look of that proof Merc and especially the seated half!

 

Thanks guys!
Though had I not gotten the Summer Seminar Scholarship, I probably would not have spent the close-to-$500 that I had saved up to fund my trip at the show.

1942 Toned Mercury Proof Mexican Gold coin that make it a 2 Buy/Bid shot Homerun!!!

 

I've got quite a few new coins. I'll have to post pics of them when I get more time. I got a 1935 S San Diego Pacific Expo Commem silver half, that's the most recent.
