Message:: [QUOTE="Barfly, post: 1828330, member: 57721"]CTrollhunter - Congrats man! My old man recently paid 4 figures for a Morgan of that vintage. It was a problem coin and not in the best of shape and it took him a long time to find one for sale. Maybe next time I'll steer him to that dealer I met that gets hundreds and hundreds of all the rare specimens.... But anyway, 2 boxes of halves today. My bank apparently front ran me as I was not expecting them until the end of the week. Same with the other bank in the rotation, which I'll pick up tomorrow. That will wrap up my roll hunting for the year. Next post will have some overall stats for the year. So I found 3 40%ers today and another 3 NIFC. One of the 40%'s is a 68 and it is Ugly. As in has half a copper edge on it. Not as ugly as that '67 I found I found earlier in the year, but ugly all the same. Apparently, it isn't too uncommon for 40%'s to show core material on the edges. You'd think that the mint would be better at quality control, but they must have let quite a few of these out the door. At least this one rings right. Before it's all over, I might have to try my hand at ugly coin marketing. I seem to be a magnet for them.[/QUOTE]
