Re: Dan Carrs latest
I recently purchased these.
Low mintage, and I think the “color tone” is the koolest out of all the “color tone” Dan has ever done‼️(Except for the 2015 Glendale Coin Club “color toned” he did the year before)‼️
These are really a lot more than “color toned” , as they have gold plating on the observe, and black rhodium (brilliant gray) on the reverse ‼️👍🎯
And I have a feeling that these are a lot rarer than they look, since I haven’t seen any other of his medals done in that combination, and with the hazard of handling those plating materials, we may never see this combination again from Dan‼️
This “color toned “ combination is by far my favorite “color toned “ that Dan has ever done‼️‼️👍
The antiqued one has a mintage of only 15.
Re: lowball registry sets
I guess that's the difference between someone who collects coins and someone who invests in coins.
I like the challenge of putting together a difficult set. I anticipate no return if I ever decide to sell.
Re: lowball registry sets
It's hard to justify spending the money on a coin that typically isn't going to be worth half the cost of grading. Definitely hard to classify it as a poor-man's game
Re: eBay has been great !!! A positive post😀
I just made an eBay purchase today…silver 2024 Flowing Hair medal with 230 privy…CAC MS70 for under $4900…from a coin dealer. Cert number checked out…and they have a return privilege. Looks like I got a good deal based on similar items.
New 1842-O $5 gold. Show your Liberty Gold!
This is a tough date. CAC shows 20 for this date, but only 3 have crossed Heritage, StacksBowers and Great Collections. The date is difficult to find with nice color. The surfaces usually have an issue. I was happy to find one with an original look. CAC seems to care more about color than surfaces.

Regular customer is 1 to 2 days max.Define regular? I have been purchasing form them for years but maybe only a few coins per year.
forget about that. That's a lie. it can take 2 to 4 weeks depends on the auction. If they ship in a week I would consider fast. A week is 5 days because we should not count weekend.
Thanks I was just use to items been shipped in a few days but seems like that may have changed (at least for now). Will sit back and wait.
GC can ship in 3 days actually 2 days most of the time. pay on Sunday and ship on Tuesday.

Your status, choice of payment method, and the dollar value of the item can affect the shipping time.
Ive bought 4 things from Heritage this year. None of them too longer than a week to ship. One of them the auction was June 24, and the item was delivered to me by June 28.

Re: 230th Anniversary Flowing Hair High Relief Gold Coin (24YG)
Very true lol, my bid was just a contingency bid i placed like a month ago if it sold unusually cheap for some reason, I really had no intention of winning.
When I truly want something, someone's planning on a loooong-term relationship if they make me into the underbidder.
