<p>[QUOTE=&quot;borgovan, post: 696362, member: 13016&quot;]What a nice thread.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I believe I&#039;ve only ever purchased one coin that was a pre-1900 proof. It was an Indian head cent that was is a non-top-3-TPG holder. I only paid $50, so I don&#039;t feel bad. I won&#039;t tell you what insane multiple of my purchase price I sold it for.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&lt;shift gears&gt;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve always felt that these early proofs were underappreciated, and therefore undervalued. My gain, their loss, I suppose.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Physics-fan: That isn&#039;t the 1961 DDR, is it? Remind me to tell you a funny story about that variety sometime.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Paul, Illini: It should not be legal for either of you to own those coins. Shame on you. Admit responsibility, turn yourselves in, and mail those badboys to me IMMEDIATELY!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>ldhair: I hope plenty of people on this board take advantage of the free tuition you have provided them on coin photography. Bravo![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
