<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 970059, member: 26302"]Back in the older days dealers used to look at 6 coins the 1909-1940 boards. The second board went straight into the bulk pile. It may be higher now, but still unless something is exceptional dealers and buyers will only look at about 10? coins. The rest really don't affects its value. I bought a bag from a dealer one time, and he was a few hundred cents short at the moment. He just went over to his pile of boards, (the 6 dates had been removed when he bought them), and popped them out into the bag. Yeah, I got a lot of 1916d and 1919s, etc, (don't even remember better dates not key), but back then they were not really worth anything.</p><p><br /></p><p>I understand you ahve assembled a collection, but a lot of people want to assemble their own.
