    I sold my commem set "into" the bull market, and hoped my timing was good. I felt that "grade-flation" had become so prevelent that I could not afford to stay "in the game". Bruce, could you share your motivations to sell?

    Hi guys..yes its so...I guess the thrill of the hunt was over for me..I love the pursuit and these 8 sets were about as complete with best possible examples for each date in my opinion..so its off to the start of a couple new sets that should take me a long time to complete...Many of these coins going to auction I know will be unreplaceable and that part is really hard, but its time..

    Bruce,

    You were most gracious towards me when I initially completed my type set of early commemoratives. I have also marveled at the accomplishments you have achieved in the area of proof Barbers; are all of your sets now consigned to a retail dealer or , to an auction house ?

    I had the opportunity of examining the proof Barbers at the Heritage table while I was at the FUN show. Marvelous...simply marvelous !
