<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bluegill, post: 48195, member: 1748&quot;]I just bought a 1987 mint set on ebay, my first coin purchase online (and only my second from ebay ever.) $8.25 plus shipping. I&#039;ve been looking for 1987 halves, but I figured, why not get the whole set? Now I&#039;m suffering buyer&#039;s remorse--I really just wanted to fill the year gaps in my circulated kennedy halves collection, but these coins aren&#039;t circulated, and I&#039;m not sure I&#039;d want to break them out of the mint cellophane, though I could move <i>all</i> of my halves to 2x2s from the little Whitman folders...hmmm. Should I keep the mint sets in the mint cellophane? I guess I have the rest of my life to decide. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>And I also stopped at a coin store on the way home from work and bought an AU 1893 Columbian Expo half. I&#039;m really not big on commems, but I read <i>The Devil In The White City</i> by Eric Larson recently, and it made me want to own a little piece of that history. That was a fascinating book--I recommend it.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are two of my biggest coin purchases ever! They might not seem big to you, but I feel the need to tell someone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
