I did not, but lots of nice stuff on hold. Who are the lucky ones?

Hmmm...I did not even get the email. Must have dropped off of the list? Don't know why, I always open the emails!

Nothing for me this round

Beautiful group of coins, but nothing I needed.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
Nope
No, but I got an "early bird" from the driver in the other lane!!
I liked this one but I was late to the party.
Lance.
Wow, that looks gorgeous!
I wasn't really even tempted by anything this time.
Nothing here on this one for me, Lots of nice coin as well
Never heard of the company. Did a google search for CRO and a ton of Cryptocurrency sites comes up. A little more digging and I found the site. A really nice mix of coins. Signed up for the early bird email notice.

Yes, there was something for me this time!
John is a good guy to do business with. Be careful with his emails...He finds nice coins, and you might buy something!
No but it reminded me I won a token at auction almost 10 years ago and never photographed it.
Time to break out the token and camera?
I bought a nice CAC Seated dollar a last time. Nothing today.
I think we can all agree that this beauty is an MS coin.
I remember that 1827. It actually sold on Great Collections in August. I was outbid. I really liked it.
i smell a long-lost love (coin) FTW (for the weekend) coming!
I was somewhat tempted by the 1721-H 9 Deniers. It's rather choice for one of those, but I already have a pistareen in the 1721 slot in my prime number set.

If you buy something don't forget to get a bill cap for yourself, just saying 🙂
I heard some of the early bird coins lasted more than ten minutes. The market must be crashing
John has one of the best eyes in the business in my opinion. He gravitates toward the same type of material that I like--original pieces, often with gorgeous toning, in older slabs with CAC stickers. Several of my box of 20 came from CRO, including that gorgeous pine tree shilling. Top notch to work with, too.

I didn't see anything for me. AND.... I sure can't find that 1827 half on the email.
It still would have been a dupe so I wouln't have ordered it but it's strange I can't see it on the email.
I didn’t get one this round. I got one from the last round. I felt proud for being in the right place at the right time. You have to move quick with him.
Where ya been?

Not this time, but I always look! Hate it when I'm late and find out a few other people called about a coin I wanted.

Nothing there for me.
Great eye, gorgeous pieces, and he's even easy to work with. And I did not buy anything.

No,. Most times when I see something I like it says 'HOLD'.
I need to browse faster!
@bolivarshagnasty Yes, although it may be out of place on the US side of things! A dark side piece for my Argentina sunface set.
Nothing, there was a stunning 1827 dime (matching the 1827 half for stunning) but it would have been a dup and mine is also stunning. It went so someone got a great dime!
Best, SH
