Best Of

This was my only aquisition for 2025. Something slightly out of my normal collecting set. Thanks to a friendly fellow collector for the purchase.

Lost but later Found:

I sold this coin as part of a trade & only later realized how rare it was. I never thought I would see it again, but 5+ years later, there it was in a GC auction.
While it’s “only” a 64BN, there are only 3 MS examples known.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

I have several coins that I'm thankful to have. This one is at the top of the list. I have wanted one of these for virtually my entire life. I finally got one in my 69th year.

Happy Thanksgiving

Very fun set, good luck finding more.

I ran across these today while surfing the internet, why would PCGS slab firecracker labels? Just curious 🧐

I understand this is not a set for everyone. That is a good thing because there is a limited supply out there. Some see Gold Stickered slabs as something that should be cracked. Not me. These will be saved for future generations of collectors to enjoy. I am hoping to add an NGC Gen 2.0/2.1 and some PCGS Gen 2 holders as well.

I have been very lucky to obtain 13 of these in the past month or so. Some from auctions, some from dealers and some from fellow forum members. (a big thank you for those). It has been an extremely fun adventure and I look forward to finding more down the road.
