Re: FUN Show Roll Call
I should be there one day. I'll say once it is determined, but it is probably Thursday.
Re: FUN Show Roll Call
Will be there Wednesday through Saturday! Probably spend a good chunk of my time viewing lots and learning more how to grade.

The 2020 V75 Gold eagle is selling for 14k or higher at 1,945 mintage.
They made the V75 one year. They make commemoratives every year. Mintages are low because no one buys them.
PS Nobody wanted the gold buffalo fractionals and they sat around until they finally sold out with little interest.
On the contrary, the 08 W gold buff fractionals were a one-year issue that never sat around. The mint had to actually quit selling gold coins because of a gold planchet shortage in 08. I was fortunate to purchase dozens of buffalo and burnished eagle four coin sets direct from the mint before there was even a hint of a planchet shortage. Three year run (06, 07 and 08) on the burnished W gold eagle fractionals also resulted in coins that didn't sit around, especially the 08's. Likely that the gold buff and burnished eagle fractionals were halted after 08 because of unknown future planchet availability.
Re: 2024 NFL Offseason/Regular Season Thread
People were wondering what was wrong with Mahomes for most of the season. One thing basically… his left tackle was inviting opposing players to go up and sit on Mahomes lap like he was Santa Claus. As a result Patrick has a career high in sacks at 36. At its worst they had him taking the snap and immediately rolling right so he could get a running start away from the left side pass rush. The last couple games it wasn’t an issue and all the sudden Mahomes looks like his old self. It’s not rocket science, if a veteran like Mahomes has defenders coming after him constantly and struggles against that much pressure, imagine a rookie like Caleb who has been sacked almost twice as many times as Mahomes.
So I’ll agree with Galaxy on this one, until the Bears provide decent pass protection for Caleb we don’t know how good he can be yet.
Re: Is there a way to put an alert on a PCGS coin that was stolen during shipping?
I would just add the coin and the cert# to one of your sets. If/when someone tries to register it you will be notified to remove it. When/if that happens you can then reach out to PCGS and tell them that the coin was stolen and have them report to the police who was trying to register it and also report it to NCIC.
