<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Silverhouse, post: 2432553, member: 29452&quot;]I don&#039;t have any new acquisitions to show but I will warn you now, this post may be a bit long, and mods if it needs to be moved, I understand.&nbsp; This is what happened at work tonight.&nbsp; Perhaps I should put it in that thread, but I thought I would put it here because it involves a Heritage Collection.&nbsp; Maybe it&#039;s no big deal, maybe some of you know about this collection, because I have no idea how big this man&#039;s personal collection is, but if NGC is putting your name on almost everything you own, then I have to wonder.</p><p><br /></p><p>I met a guy who is an BIG coin collector.&nbsp; He&#039;s a Horse Jockey, owns a horse and has him racing this Friday at Pimlico.&nbsp; He showed me photos of his horse on his phone numerous occasions.&nbsp; His Horses&#039; name is Senor&#039; Star.&nbsp; His first name is Ron, and when he told me his last name it was so loud I couldn&#039;t hear.&nbsp; But either way, tonight at work, he came in and showed me two AG 3&#039; Seated Liberty&#039;s.&nbsp; One was a quarter and one was a half dollar.&nbsp; Both 1858.&nbsp; Though the Half was an 1858 O.&nbsp; He threw them on the table and said, &quot;you had some ms barber dimes?&nbsp; I have lot&#039;s of stuff man, what are you looking for?&nbsp; Look at this.&quot;&nbsp; He produced several sheets of paper stapled together and he proceeded to show me his last auction results from Heritage.&nbsp; Then he told me that NGC put his name on some of this collection.&nbsp; I asked him if he ever heard of Coin Talk and he told me he did but&nbsp; he didn&#039;t have time to browse the net on collector sites, though he would LOVE to check it out.&nbsp; So he took down the site address.&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t know when he&#039;s selling again through Heritage, but it was nice that he offered to sell me some pieces from his collection.&nbsp; Such a friendly guy.&nbsp; I asked him what exactly he was trying to do with his collection.&nbsp; Sell it? Trade?&nbsp; He told me both and again asked about my Barber dimes, lol.&nbsp; That was about it.&nbsp; I am still a bit unclear on if he wants to sell direct to buyer and bypass Heritage and sell privately.&nbsp; He told me he may be in Monday night and back Thursday and I offered to take him with me to see Julian Liedman in Silver Spring Wednesday.&nbsp; I have no idea if he will go or not.&nbsp; Any suggestions?&nbsp; What would you do?</p><p><br /></p><p>Okay, so I DID find a new coin.&nbsp; My first IHC.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
