A bad combination

Spinal surgery, pain meds, and Great Collections. I was elated to see I won two later date half cents on GC last night. Only to realize I bid and won Large Cents. Embarrassing to say the least.

    Those types of distractions are difficult to think around. Were they nice coins none the less?

    GC has a return policy.......use it.

    Ouch. Sorry to hear that. As a 1/2 cent collector, and not a large cent collector, I feel for ya.
    I may be selling mine in the near future though, so keep going after them B)

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Playing with that idea but not sure of pricing. Maybe GC and/or Heritage for a few...

    Keep me in mind ;)

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
