    What is NOT a recent purchase is that Reiver BB-185 bust dollar. Thought I would easily outbid and then came a couple guys whop went crazy on it. It sold a year ago January at Heritage for $3480 (complete). Final GC bid tonight (before the juice) was $5750. I wasn't going to $6k.

    I wish I could. I hope to post pictures eventually.

    I saw the listing for this mighty nice coin. Couldn’t swing for it due to other commitments. Very nice and big congratulations!

    @Jzyskowski1 I’ve always loved that scd. I think there are 2 versions of this one but, can’t remember if I have one of each….lol The only difference is large letters and small letters.

    Thoughts on this purchase, ANACS 1971-S Ike, MS68. Even if it grades 67 it was still affordable. Updates in several months when it crosses.

    Can’t see the reverse but are you going to be ok with 65-66. The obverse has multiple problems.
    I would not attempt a cross over unless a couple points down is cool. I understand wanting a certain slab , sometimes it’s better to sell and replace. I would be curious to see both sides. Take your time and get a good one of each side.
    I’m learning to grade and also getting some good natured humor for missing by a mile on guess the grades. 😉🙀🦫

    @Jzyskowski1 I think what you posted is mostly surface scratches on the holder, I think it's probably 67. I'll let you know in 3-4 months.
