    That's good, since you sure as hell wouldn't have a prayer in the other competition. image

    Okay, I've spent $765,000 so far. Now, what should I buy with the $235,000 I have left? image



    << <i>I can't even find where to select the coins. >>



    Click the price guide link at the top, go in to whatever coin category you're looking for, click the price next to the coin and it will appear on your list. Then click the "buy" button and on the next page enter the quantity you want, then click the buy button.

    Buy 23 1964 AH Kennedies in 68DCAM, then a month or so before the end of the contest sell yours for 150% of the guide value.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    I'm in, and spent my million - anybody need 2 1884 Proof Trade dollars? Bought 2 at $450,000 each just so I don't have to flip 'em over to see both sides.

    To buy, log in and then go to the price guides and click on the dollar amount of the coin you want. Follow the screens to buy.

    The fact that the server which homes the forums works so well makes me believe that the server where the world series is ought to work just about as smooth as snot on a doorknob.

    Took about 30 minutes, but I was able to spend $999,985. Figured I should save the rest for parking at the next Long Beach show.

    Oh, and if anyone trys to buy certain VAMs but can't, well, too bad! image
    When in doubt, don't.

    I'm fully invested. Most coins start with 17 in the date. But when I had only pennies left, I went for 2 modern cents!
