<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 4761893, member: 26302"]I know Paul, which is why I said I do not disagree with you on this coin. However, there are still unsearched rolls of other coins nearby. I bought rolls in the late 70s/early 80's of 38d buffs, and the early Jeffs. I do not think the dealer searched them, and I only opened them up to see they were all the correct dates. This was before the slabbing craze and even before the different reverse on the 39's I think. They are still sitting in the roll in the SDB, along with BU rolls of mercs, WL, and a few other dates for Jeffs, (I was thinking of making a roll set of them at the time, I think I have 48d and a couple of other post WWII dates, not the 50D though which I thought was overhyped). There is stuff still out there is my point, owned by people who do not wish to sell coins or play the slabbing game. Maybe not enough of coins from 80 years ago is left, maybe I am a dinosaur, I can just talk about my personal experience. There was a LOT of this still unslabbed when I was in US collecting, but to be honest that has been over 20 years now. Maybe I am really out of date.</p><p><br /></p><p>Btw Paul, I have really enjoyed your Jeff threads here.

Btw Paul, I have really enjoyed your Jeff threads here. At times you almost got me back interested in them. :) I love to see someone passionate about them, since they were so overlooked for so long in US numismatics.[/QUOTE]
