    I predict we'll see many more threads like this as March 1 approaches. Personally, with $8500 I would buy the highest grade 1916 D Merc I could find and proceed to build a matched set around it.

    Yeah, or something Flowing Hair. They've got to be one of the coolest U.S. Coins around with lots of history. Oh, and it takes big bucks to get one. image

    I can't think of a better thing to spend that money on than a retired circus chimp.

    Spend it all on some of those beautiful slabbed rainbow toners that seem like some sort of AT hallucination. The TPG slabs will lend just the right aura that will convince the smoe people that they are really NT. image
