<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2080056, member: 19165&quot;]I was perusing Heritage, as I often do on a lazy Sunday afternoon, and I saw the upcoming sale of the Skidaway Island collection on Heritage. This appears to mostly be Bust Halves - and there appear to be a very large number of them. Anyone know who this is, and who&#039;s selling their collection? Is there a lot of interest or buzz being generated for this collection?</p><p><br /></p><p>Any thoughts on the quality, looking through it? I have some very strong opinions, but they are strongly negative: After looking through nearly 500 Bust Halves, I saw only 3 that I am interested in. There are a few nice coins, but not many. Nearly every single coin in the collection is cleaned, spotty, damaged, unorignal, or unattractive in some way. This is a huge collection - but it is a terribly unappealing one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let this serve as encouragement when you collect - focus on quality, rather than quantity. When it comes time to sell, there will be a huge difference between a collection assembled with care, and one assembled with ugly coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
