<p>[QUOTE="FmrFiatFollower, post: 1372383, member: 35871"]Yes to all, I have decided to sell the collection with the exception of two 1950-D nickels as those have long been holes in my books, two coronets and some nice wheat cents that were AU-BU. I have left everything else in the collection...I have a chance to buy a nice collection of U.S. coins and am putting the money towards this collection. Although I'm sure when it's gone I will regret it.</p><p><br /></p><p>The woman who sold me this collection had spent the past 3 months pricing and grading all the coins, she was well aware of the value they held, she gave me an itemized report of each coin and the binders all have running totals that all together totaled $7700! She was selling off anything of value in her father's estate because she was forced to cover his burial costs. Apparently the life insurance agent cared more about lining his pockets than he cared about making sure this gentleman got a life policy that would actually pay out when he expired (I was an insurance agent for 7 years and this bothers me to no end). She drove the conversation when it came to price, and I was happy to get a deal. I have bought some minerals and gemstones from her in the past and treated her well so I was happy to see the favor returned. It's not every day that deals like this come along.</p><p><br /></p><p>Caskaboom - the paper money that I have looked at so far is silver certificates, occupied Japanese Pesos and Centavos, Russian notes, and a slew of Nazi Germany 100 Reich banknotes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
