I'm sorry but even with a magnifyer i can't make out the coins you sold.
Selling some duplicates and low-priced world coinage I bought long ago. Indirectly it's contributing to other coins I bought this year but not the reason I sold it. I just wanted to get rid of it.
Thanks, I modified it.
@semikeycollector. Those are some great coins you sold. I had already commited to a different auction so could not bid on 2 of your coins. I will have to see what they sold for,
The gold coin is quite impressive. Is this the start of a new collection or is this the new rock star of your current set? James
@semikeycollector . The 74-s sold for more than i could have bid. I'm still not sure the 49-o was correctly identified. I can clearly see a flag on top of the 1 in the date and a few other things but that is with pictures; in hand coins can be quite different. Congrats on both your sales and purchase. james
The only “coins” I’ve parted with in the past 6 years are 14 gold 1/10th oz eagles. All in the past 4 months and all included in trades for nice coins (and 1 Lincoln campaign medal) I really wanted.
Very happy and proud owner of all the newer additions to my collection.
Sold all my modern and duplicate gold.
Middle date walkers in AU, and early large cent dupes. Haven’t bought anything (excluding health insurance lol), but Winter FUN is coming up….
I sold these to fund some other purchases.
Thank you James! The gold coin is part of a set of better date Liberty $5. There are 5 coins now in the set. If I make it to 10 or 12 coins, I will be happy.
I had a full date/mm set of the Seated Dimes about 4 years back minus the 1873-cc N/A. Did Seated for 30+ years, wanted to collect something else.
Are you putting together sets? Thanks for asking!
I originally collected Seated Halves. Started with Seated in 1997. Sold a lot because of covid. Built some partial sets of Seated Dimes and Quarters post covid. Have about 10 or so Seated coins i am still looking for but just embarked on a customized type set of Barber coins this month. James
Since the post didn't specify selling coins, I'll mention that my custom album sales have fueled a couple of transactions for new pieces in my collection. Two months ago, I traded a Women Quarter album with P-D-S business strikes for P + D innovation dollars and less than two weeks ago I sold two Hawaii albums towards buying an 1865-S half dime.

Sold this one:
Got me 2/3 of the way to this one:
Beautiful dollars. Hope you got “all the money” for that ‘98…. So nice
Some highlights from the 20 coins sold publicly with nice results through GC and GFRC. Both are highly recommended.
These and other sales allowed me to complete a set of SLHs (70-CC), purchase some nice raw upgrades and slab them (69-S, 56-O), and bag a few rare die marriages, including both R7 1877-S Weird F halves (WB-6 and WB-40) in MS. I also bought some "lookers" for fun (78-S $, 1902 BH). I had never sold any of my coins until lately. It's been a fun year selling coins, particularly at auction, and then purchasing coins off of those sales revenues.

Bullion.
I have mainly sold my bullion and held on to the rest.
Sold this one.
I upgraded my 89-CC recently and it will eventually help me purchase more upgrades of other dates for my Morgan Collection.
Sold some pricier foreign to make room for some new additions.
The only time I sell is if the coin is substandard and/or to help fuel another purchase.
Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

I've sold quite a bit this year via GC and this closed last week. Should be another group of Matron Cent Overdates listing this weekend.
