Three Elderly Gents

Not as dapper as Russ' boys, but charming in their steely elegance - Russ has his thing about 64 Halves, I have mine about 62's go figure! image

    Why 62's?

    3. They can be found in well struck condition

    I made the statement a while back that the 62 was underrated, and got slammed by some "experts" (not Frank or Lucy) That it wasnt all that tough in 65. The FBL is really tough. Trying to find a nice solid 65 was one of the toughest to find for me.

    At a population of just 341, the 1962P in MS65 is an awesome buy in this grade. In my estimation, it compares favorably to a 1951P and 1954S in relative scarcity, at a fraction of what those coins are going for in MS65FBL.

    Well you are very wise my little pug. You want a Cohiba? (from a little Island off the coast of Fla.)

    Pretty nice. The rims are doing what I like them to do, make the design look like a picture in a picture frame.

    Nice trio.

    Have you thought of picking up some proofs of that date.
    I've seen several with light cameo that are a bargain.
    The most money I made are on coins I haven't sold.

    Got quoins?

    Coulport - that's a good thought - I've been looking for some "bargain" yet undiscovered coins in proofsets but haven't walked away with any thus far - I think Lucy's swiped all the good proofs! image
