Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....

MAULUMALL

He put it up and emailed me as we were speaking.


Lucy I waited long as I could.Check out the nickel.BLUUUUEEEE

eminem

the funny thing is that i looked at that auction earlier and didn't enlarge the picture with a click on it.......see what the lazy ebay surfer misses.

KlectorKid

I was thinking about that blue nickel Such a nice nickel I would hate for u to lose it by mailing it to me by accident.

MAULUMALL

DON"T LET RUSS SEE IT.........NOBODY WILL STAND A CHANCE


That Frankencam AND an Accented Hair.BWAHAHAHAHA.



I feel slightly evil

Rover

#!@$&amp;*)*!!!!

KlectorKid

Delete the link quick!!!

MAULUMALL

I feel so dirty

airplanenut

a pointed 9 dime!!!

KlectorKid

Evil!!!

KlectorKid

So it has a CAM Franky, an AH Kennedy, a pointed 9 dime and a blue nickel. I say its a winner!

Rover

PURE Evil

MAULUMALL

I feel sorry for buddyseven who has the high bid right now.

robertpr

That will be one sweet package for the winning bidder. Unfortunately, it looks as though the Franklin is only cameo'd on the obverse.

MAULUMALL

Do you think NGC would give it a star for the obverse

Russ

<< <i>DON"T LET RUSS SEE IT.........NOBODY WILL STAND A CHANCE >>



MAULUMALL,

It was already on my snipe list. Besides the Accented Hair, I wanted that blue nickel. I was kind of hoping this thread would just die and not get noticed.

Russ, NCNE

KlectorKid

as does Lucy

robertpr

as do I now... to the bottom!

Rover

MAULUMALL,

Did you find it after reading this?

I guess this is a dose of my own medicine. Russ would appreciate this after last night

Dan

MAULUMALL

Rover
No I saw it about 3 days ago and put it on my List.
I hope I didn't mess you up.
I was wondering why you were a little tense.I'll try to make it up to you.

MAULUMALL

Ya know This is getting to be an ugly circle.
Russ sniped me last week.
You jacked Russ.
Then I appairently screwed EVERYBODY over.



OH WHAT A TANGLED WEB WE WEAVE.....................

Rover

Sounds like a few of us had it on our snipe list. I thought it would cruise under most everyone's radar because of the smaller pic. Once he posted reverse pics, I knew the cat was out of the bag.

Dan

MadMarty

Let the sniping begin!!!

MAULUMALL

I was High bidder for all of 15 minutes(if that)

MAULUMALL

There aught to be some way to not stomp on each others feet.

Rover

MAULUMALL,

You do know how to snipe, right? I see you have bid several times already.....
Just wondering what your logic is?

Dan

MAULUMALL

I don't have a snipe program.It's my Fem's birth year set.I was checking where the bidding was going to get a feel of how much I would go.I was doing $10.00 increments.I may put a snipe on it.I really think it's gonna go up a bit more.

If you are going to bid I'll leave it alone.


It's a nice group of coins.besides the Franklin,The deep blue nickel and The deep cam rosie,You get what looks like a pretty nice AH Kennedy

I can't post PM's but I can read them.

Russ

Snipe it! The current high bidder is a dickhead.

Russ, NCNE

BSqr

that is a nice little grouping of coinage alright

Russ did you get those 5 unopened 64 sets yet? You sniped me on that one.

Russ

BSqr,

I got five sets in today from one auction, but I have five more on the way from another. Which auction was it?

Russ, NCNE

BSqr

not sure which auction but man I was disappointed - they were going to be my first 64 sets. Oh well, I guess I didn't want them bad enough. I ended up getting three others of which I have received one (whose dime I posted yesterday with that milky crap on it). What is your impression of these so-called 'unopened' proof sets from eBay? Do you tend to believe that most have never actually been opened?

Rover

Russ,
How 'bout the ones from Suze21?

Dan

Russ

Dan,

Of the three that came from Suze21, one was an Accented Hair. Nothing special about the rest of the coins.



<< <i>Do you tend to believe that most have never actually been opened? >>



BSqr,

I believe that most HAVE been opened or, at the very least, randomly spot-checked. I can show you one seller who frequently sells batches of ten "unopened" sets but also sells plenty of raw Accented Hairs and NO regular raw Kennedys. He must be damned lucky that the only sets he opens happen to have an AH.

I can show you another seller that sells off literally hundreds of "unopened" 1964 sets every week, yet lists plenty of freshly graded 1964 halves, always in PR69. HMM....I guess he's also just very lucky.

I look for small batches from sellers that don't have a history of selling certified coins or are non-collectors/ex-collectors selling off stuff (see Suze21 above) . I also look for open sets with a good scan (that's where most of my Accented Hairs have come from).

Russ, NCNE

silverandvinyl

Looks like a lot of competition between our forum members. I kind a like the 3 jeffs and the two Frankies.Ah,just a little over 2 hours left.I wonder whose going to nail this one.I'll be waiting in the wings.I don't have any mints sets prior to 1980.I might have to sell my dime to get this set.Isn't it a nice "rush" regardless if you win or lose? Gentlemen,start your engines!!!!!!

Russ

<< <i>I wonder whose going to nail this one. >>



Hopefully anybody but the dickhead Bumperone.

Russ, NCNE

MAULUMALL

Damm Russ,what did this guy do to get you this upset.

Russ

<< <i>Damm Russ,what did this guy do to get you this upset. >>



Back in July this moron listed an "MS69" NTC slabbed 1964 Kennedy half that was obviously a proof coin. He had an opening bid of $800 on a coin that was worth $15. There was a thread here discussing it, and several of us, including myself and Morris (MNMCOIN) sent him eMails pointing out the error. He told us all we were full of crap, so we kept hammering away at him to try and make sure nobody got screwed.

He finally did cancel the aution but, before doing so, edited it and added the following:



<< <i>This auction has been cancelled since Ebay ID's: COMPUCHEAP & MNMCOIN are spreading FALSE & MALICIOUS information about this coin. >>



Russ, NCNE

Russ

Cool, somebody nailed it with a two second snipe. Was that one of you guys?

Russ, NCNE

JMOORE

I would have posted sooner but I just received my login and password to the forum.

I am the guilty one that made the two second snipe.

I think I might have paid to much, but I REALLY wanted the "Blue Nickel"

Jim

Rover

Jim,

I've got a half dozen blue nickels if you want them? Trade for the Frankie?

Dan

JMOORE

Dan,

Thanks for the offer, but I was just kidding about the "Blue Nickel"

The real reason I bought it was for the Half Dollars...

Jim

LucyBop

Why all of the sudden are Frankies getting popular, or hopefully they are focusing on the 64...

JMOORE

I use to collect Frankie's Back in the 80's, had a couple of complete sets in MS63 to MS65 (Raw) and a dozen or so Cameo Proofs.
Then I went and got married and started to raise a family.
Had to sell them off to pay the bills.

I have always loved the Franklin Half Dollars, and now that I am starting my collection again I am going to concentrate on them.

DCAMFranklin

Things are getting a little.......crowded...... around here. We're going to have to recruit some Walker collectors!
