    Revert back to collecting 3 cent nickels. Those haven’t gone up in decades.

    Or circulated roosevelt dimes

    shouldn't winning be a broken piggy bank?

    It always seem up when there is a piece I want to buy in auction and down when I am not buying and just watching.

    One barometer I've used is the cost of a full set of 32 Eisenhower dollars. They routinely sold for $175. to $225. depending on the overall eye appeal and quality. Now they are hoovering right around $325. for the set.

    Based on those results, I’m worried that your winning $80 bid (or bids) was a mistake, if not an outright burial.😉

    It says “winning”, not “won”. It doesn’t close for another three days, and I’m not very optimistic about winning it. 😟

    Just the 10 silver coins in the set melt for $285, so…
