<p>[QUOTE=&quot;capitalcoinman, post: 2111391, member: 74022&quot;]I am sure as collectors, everyone at some point can recall when a potential buy slipped away for various reasons. I recall a phone call I got about 4 years ago from a lady who dug up her dads coin collection in the yard of their family home. buried it many years ago but forgot exactly where because of memory problems. Her and a sister spent 4 days digging around a shed and came up with a old metal milk jug. The highlight of the hoard was a complete set of Newfoundland 2 dollar gold ,yes the 1880 was there(2500 minted)&nbsp; and several duplicates of other years . I did place a bid,&nbsp; lower than usual because every coin had glue residue on them. I Figure at some point in past tape was used to secure them in an album. They did get a second quote and he outbid me by 500.I regret&nbsp; that one that got away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
