I was the 2nd place bidder on that coin last night on Great Collections with a max bid of $1222.00
I was surprised that my bid did not win the auction, and to say the least, a little disappointed.
Danny
Shortly after I posted the quote above, I was made aware that I had been bidding against HALCYON at the end of that auction. This coin would have been a huge upgrade for me as I currently have an AU58.
Neither one of us was aware that the other person was actively bidding. After I found this out I felt so guilty for this situation. I would NEVER bid against him in ANY auction if I knew that he was going to try and win the coin up for auction.
As a matter of fact, I have contacted him numerous times in the past, in advance, to ask him if he was interested in the same coin that I was. If he told me he was, I did not submit any bids on that particular coin myself.
I have taken the necessary steps to make sure that this NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN.
My sincerest apologies to Halcyon.

Danny

It's all good, Danny - I got this one but I'm sure you'll get the next one.
The great thing is that we're all here to support one another.
I’m going to do a little research on you “group of 4” and make you all pay every last dime for the coins you want and especially for the coins you “need.”😉
See you all at FUN 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷

Jon you are always invited PM rainbowroosie for where the roosie dinner will be Thursday.
I see in the pop report that a beautiful 1946-S/S 10C DDR & RPM FS-501 (011.7) MS68FB pop (1/0) was recently made. @Khayman if you somehow end up with this coin, I want my MS67+FB back. Please offer it to me upon upgrading, I beg you!
Gotta give a shout out to Danny Biddle and Gary @ Ilike monsters. Been working on completing my 46-64 silver set in MS66fb. Needing the 57 and 58 P's for awhile now. They're just not available. Gary upgraded a 65fb to a 66fb at Baltimore. I left an hour before he got the upgrade news. Now anxiously awaiting the mailman. Danny came through with a really nice 57 which I received yesterday. Within the hour I should be complete. Thanks guys, you are awesome. Now on to 67fb's.

Congratulations and good luck as you pursue upgrades in 67FB.

If I’m lucky enough to get the 68FB then you got it, brother!
We'll wait until FUN to hear "the rest of the story" from Jim. I need to alert everyone to a milestone that's about to happen. Danny Biddle is about to pass the just having fun set as the 3rd all time finest set in the silver roosie FB 46 - 64 registry. Both sets are currently tied and one more upgrade for Danny and he becomes 3rd all time finest.
Thanks so much Nick for the shout-out.
All of my success is a direct result of your help.
I would never have been able to assemble the set of Roosies that I currently have without your help and dedication to the cause. You are truly one remarkable person.................
I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of my fellow Roosie Dime collectors a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I hope that each of you are able to spend some cherished time with your family, friends, and loved ones..........
I can hardly wait to meet each of you at the FUN show in January.
I just reserved my ticket to the PCGS Fun Show Luncheon on Friday January 10. If you are a Set Registry participant, you are invited to this luncheon. There is no cost to attend. Looking forward to a fun time at FUN 2020.
Regards,
Danny

Love you Rainbowroosie!

No. Not the "bidding story"
Nick HATES to lose at anything......
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
That may be true, as he always mentions to me how he crushes you at golf. Might have to see that in person this year. . .
The "Bidding Story" does not involve Nick.
Collusion...I knew it...mumble mumble mumble
Now I’m confused. I thought it was the 51s story?

West Palm, Dallas, whatever...Name any venue and I probably overpaid for a stooopidly toned Roosie.
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
Well, not really close. Another memory jog: 2008
I’m about to enter my ninth decade of life on this earth and you think I can remember 2008?
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
Dude, you have some amazing friggin’ genes!
Ugh, stretch jeans?
Khayman,
But I do remember watching Queen Elizabeths coronation on TV in 1953...
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
Happy early birthday!
Ok, another hint: 1953-S
Dahhhhhh… Nope doesn't do it.
Someone is in denial?
I’ve had the same 53s in 68* forever? I’m confused? Jim, have you been tapping the Opus One early???
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
My, oh my, I can't believe you don't remember.

Another clue:
One paddle, two paddle, how high will it go...
Are you talking about the 50D?
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
Bill, I think you're right. Jim has it wrong. It has to be the 50D.
Nope, I'm correct...53S. Bill just doesn't remember; will post another clue soon...
All these threads with only clues and nothing solid. It's like watching Lost again...🤪

Thanks! Going to give the 47d at least another couple tries!

Seems to be some decent dimes around again.
I was beginning to wonder if everyone was taking a vacation from Roosies.
Newly crossed over MS68. Thanks to Gary for taking care of the submission.
