Re: The New Commemorative UNC Dollar King has been made
Crypto: Ok. We can use the next Commemorative from 1 year later. The MS Constitution with a MINTAGE: 451,629. So, the Mint only lost 98% of its collector base in 37 years instead of 99% in 38 years. Now all fair.

Re: Your most valuable cards
Those are some amazing cards. I would be embarrassed to put my top 5 on here after seeing those.
Re: Cause of damage to 1853 Cent?
Corrosion, and random damage from a hard life. Maybe it was buried for a time and some of the damage happened when it was dug up. Just guessing as damage is hard to know unless you were there at the time
Re: New to me: Trader Bea PCGS Holder
I'd pay less for a coin in this holder to cover the reholdering cost.

There are 185 70's and 45 69's...so far it doesn't look like bidding reflects the grade. It does look like the first and the last minted are in highest demand.
Honestly, I'm not sure i would expect the 69/70 spread to be that large. It's about wanting one and the supply being limited.

Could be really nice.

I am very sorry to report that in just (38) years of the same Commem $1 program, the U.S. Mint has reduced collector interest by 99% (repeat 99%)!! I truly thought this was an impossible feat to accomplish. Can’t get any worse than a 1% additional decline from this point regardless of what happens!
A few years ago, I worked as the expert witness for the U.S. Justice Department (Kansas City) along with some very strong U.S. Mint personnel. We won that Federal case hands down. Happy to share my ideas any time with the U.S. Mint on how to turn their Commem $1 Program around.
