    Thanks guys. You know how how much I like the higher end coins for our proof type set, but to me, coins like this can be nearly as difficult to find. I can truly say that I enjoy collecting them just as much as the others.

    These types of coins are very much underpriced (when original and problem free). I figured that the two of you would appreciate them, as will others on the boards...

    Speaking of good coins, I was thinking of bidding on this one... What do you think?

    Nice coins. I especially like the middle one. Although coins in upper grades are always nice, I always liked the "look" of certain original circulated coins.
