This The last coin on my mind on my 50 mile drive to the show ...as I still have raw uncirculated specimens from rolls purchased years ago. So what would you give for and 2nd gen PCI green slab with an 1943 P/P variety noted on the slab......and its reverse is at least >10 degrees counter clockwise......rotated.....not to mention the rich target toning around the obv. rim.....& Full steps! 64 on the slab ....I'm thinking at least a +/☆ and if not a point higher grade. Definitely A PQ....coin... $12.
Picked this up on GC for $47.36 with buyer's fee. It'll arrive in about a week. And the last auction appearance was 3 years ago at HA and sold for $192. https://coins.ha.com/itm/commemorat...-29706.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515
That's very nice. Does "inherited" qualify as "under $50 purchase"? I just visited my lock boxes and started going back through everything. I had to rent TWO bank boxes, and still they barely all fit. At first I was just overwhelmed with the volume. A couple of days ago I brought some back home and started going back through them. I've got some seriously BU Peace dollars that I overlooked because Morgans are my thing. Wow. I am blessed with such a gift from my father. I may go broke sending off coins to TPGs. I didn't realize at first how weakly Peace dollars are struck compared to Morgan dollars. I was pleasantly shocked with the quality he had. They had been locked up for 50 years before I laid eyes on them. I'll share some later on when I learn how to take a decent photo.
"they have to be something that YOU bought" as defined on post #1 so I guess not. Otherwise I'd have a lot more to post! Grandpa had some cool coins. Here's one I bought 5 years ago for $12. I had just discovered that the 1899 reverse type was used in 1900 in SF and I was cherrypickin'. Pretty badly damaged though. Within the past couple weeks I determined that two die pairs were used on these (see my thread), looked at it again, and it's the less common pair! Nobody geeks out on this stuff but me...
I've found nothing but a "JBH Coins" on FB. Probably just a guy that had at least part of his collection collection slabbed and paid to have it labeled as such.. but I could be wrong could turn out to be a somebody, in that case I would have expected to find more about it online
