Keep it or sell it?? - POLL

Robgetty

I'm going through some coins that I haven't paid much attention to recently, and putting together
stuff to sell in order to be able to buy the things that are currently interesting me.

I have a 1979 T2 SBA in PCGS PR69DCAM that I picked up when I bought a complete 1979 T2 proof set
from R&I several years ago (Don't ask why I bought it!) I plan on getting rid of the other coins, but
I'm wondering if I should just go ahead and make a full SBA set since I already have one of the keys.

Is it a silly reason to collect a set just because it only has a few coins and I happen to have one of the keys?

Buy them all - you can become the Hagatha Dollar King!

Sell it. Besides the fact that these are SBA's, the 1981 Type 2 in 69DCAM costs an arm and a leg.

If you happen to have the opportunity to find a party someone who had a complete set of SBA-s, minus that type II (me, me, me), perhaps you could work out a deal to pick up the balance of the coins relatively inexpensively. In case you had not thought of that.

just a thought

Most creative sales pitch I've seen today

At least SBAs aren't as bad as Sacs.

My choice is missing! I say keep it but don't buy any more. That way you have a nice example of that type.

Does not appear to be a concensus.

P.S. Finish the set.

In my opinion...yes...unless you really like the coins.

I whole-heartly agree. Collect what you like, not what you can get. On the other hand, finishing a set, even one that small feels really good.

I have a complete set of 79 and 81 proofs in type 1 and 2 and enjoyed collecting them. Much cheaper than some sets you can try to complete. I'd say keep it an go for the rest.

DHeath

Make it the first coin in your complete set of 20th century dollars. That would be a cool and do-able set.

That actually sounds like an interesting project! Other than the 1903-O Morgan
and the 1928 Peace, they are all affordable. Hmmm.

By the way Frank, that has got to be the all time best PCGS message board
sales pitch!
