Lucy,

I don't even know you and I'm blushing.

I wonder if Cameron will read this?

The board members here are great. GSAGuy has given me some great advice and jbstevens and MorganLuver have sold me some great coins. MDWoods once did me a favor and asked nothing in return. There were others I should mention but my memory fails me right now. Thanks to them all.

Edited, You are right Manofcoins...He deserves recognition.....Aethelred is the best!!!!

Lucy! Cheesus!

That is a very nice coin. Congratulations on your purchase.

The people on these forums are great. I have bought from four different forum members and all of the coins have been great. I bought a 1964 PR-68DCAM Jefferson from RGL (Randy), a 1949-S MS-65 Franklin from Lucy, a 1954-D and 1957-D MS-64 FBL Franklins from Lablover(Jim), and a 1942 T-1 PR-67 Jefferson from casabrown(Larry). All of the coins were well beyond what I was expecting. When I bought the 1942 T-1 Jefferson from Larry I was expecting to get a white coin at the price that I paid for it but when I got the coin I was really exicited because it had some of the most beautiful toning that I had seen. For $80 I was really pleased with the purchase.

I have had pleasant transactions with Morris (mnmcoin) 1963-D MS66 FBL Franklin Half Dollar, Al (keets) Several MS65 FBL Franklins,
and Russ, several toned Morgans & Franklins. And soon Lucy

I have also sold several coins to fellow forum members.

I don't think that I would hesitate to purchase form any of the established forum members.

I have never had a bad deal with anyone on this board. An all around excellent group of people to deal with, to cuss and discuss things with and generally have a great time.

Very well said!!! I don't post on here very much, i used to when i thought i knew something... but i learned quickly, every time i have i have gotten great advice, i ask everyone here about what i considered a "major" purchase (to me it was) last month.. an ms 66 1862 IHC.
I got some great advice, what to look for, and a great price guideline to follow... i trusted everyone and went ahead with the deal, and believe i got great advice...at least according to the offers i've gotten since, i know i got GREAT advice...These are some wonderful people here, we are all very lucky!!!

Aethelred

Thank you Dave. I am glad you like the coin. I thought the bag toning toning was pretty neat on that one.

I always try to grade with a bit of caution, I'd rather have you buy a coin from me as a 63 and have it come back 64 than the other way around!

Aethelred

BTW - I have done business with about 40 different people on these boards and never had a sour deal. I've never run across a finer bunch of folks!

Another satisfied customer here!!! Look forward to many more transactions...

Deadhorse

I've bought from several members here. If I tried to name them all from memory, I'd leave several somebodies out.

Never had any problems and always got as much or more than I had bargained for.

This is simply a great community!!

fountainheadgold

I have bought a coin or 2 from many board members, That is 1 of my side collections. When i am done I can decide who sold me the nicest coin for the dollar.

USMC_6115

I have also bought several coins from members....From dollars to St. Gaudens without a single problem

paigowjohnny

Bought several, and sold a couple...great transactions across the board !!!
I always take a look at the B/S/T board

SarasotaFrank

I always try to buy and sell with board members first, ebay is a last resort.

As an aside, I am also always delighted when Lucy blows my horn.

Skipper53

Besides great advice, the honesty and integrity of the members of this
board is a treasure beyond value. ms-70 !!!
Think I'll stick around for awhile to share and enjoy !

Merry XMAS!

Aethelred might be OK and all, but be very careful------
