<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 386845, member: 8959&quot;]Steve (srkjkd), I thank YOU very much for your kind words. As you see , this coin had been cleaned when i bought it, but it managed to tone down nicely over the years, and it has a nice presentable appearance now.&nbsp; </p><p>I sincerely hope that you will be able to own the coins you cherish. In fact, i know you will. Thank you again sir.</p><p><br /></p><p>Toad, now that i am back into US coin collecting after a 15 year lapse, i think like you that grading standards have changed. </p><p>From the coins you have posted, you seem to be after the same general early type that i collect. It is a very nice area to collect, and unfortunately nowadays much too expensive in my opinion. But, supply and demand!&nbsp; </p><p>I particularly see that price explosion happening with nice early copper, which is an area i specially like, but so do many others apparently:&nbsp; A nice S-108 (R3+) 1796 draped bust ended yesterday in eBAY UK. I came home early to bid on it, and was prepared to go high, but not as high as the final bid....wow!!!&nbsp; 2 guys really wanted that coin apparently. In my opinion, they way overpaid.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
