[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 15954989, member: 20480"]I was rushed, getting ready for FUN this year, and paid careful attention to my checklist as I packed. Unfortunately, I went with only one solitary check in my checkbook! That's what I get for not opening it and counting my checks before packing it. Wanting to preserve that one check in case I saw a coin that I couldn't live without, I forewent my usual buying trip around the room on Wednesday until I'd raised enough cash via sales to fund my trip around the room. By Thursday evening I felt flush enough with cash to go on a buying spree Friday morning. Most of the early deals were gone, but I managed to pick up a few things. A better date 1856-O Half Dime, deserving of a higher grade than PCGS gave it . . . not that you can tell through the marred holder.
