<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1703356, member: 15199&quot;]In Q.David Bowers book on Abe Kosoff ( If you don&#039;t know who he was, you are missing a lot of info) Abe ( pg 150-151) said that in the 1950s a gentleman came into his shop and sold a roll of Uncirculated 1909 SVDB for $5 each. ( $250). Then shortly there after the gentleman brought in 2 or 3 more rolls, and he bought them at the same price. Cash, no check). The seller wouldn&#039;t give his name or address,etc.&nbsp; He came back ever so often with more. Abe&#039;s supply became large even though he wholesaled some off. He had heard about a hoard of 800 rolls and figured this might be it. His price slowly went up to $5.50 then $6.00, and when with the last rolls, he wanted $6.50. Kosoff said no, and the man left. Later they tried to find him and all leads were fictitious, and no more 09 SDVB for their sales. 800 rolls would have been 40,000 BU hoarded.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
