Ya think they are waiting until Monday to bump all the prices of my coins??

poptopsRus · March 10, 2006 3:02AM

A few of my coins went up today and I still managed to go down in rank today. That's ok, when I hit it I'm gonna hit it big.

MadMarty · March 10, 2006 3:02AM

Mine have been going up every day! But so have everyone elses!

RYK · March 10, 2006 3:04AM

SaintGuru, when you buy the 1920 Saint in MS-65 from JPKinla for $125,000, I will be in the lead.

Oh, boy - OCD applied to the price lists.

Until this contest came along, weren't we all happy if prices updated one a month or once a quarter?

Russ · March 10, 2006 3:08AM

One of the coins in my portfolio went up $25 today. Woo hoo!

The only thing that moved in mine the last 48 hours were the ten 1912-S 5c nickels I've had since the get-go. A small jump from $3,150 to $3,250 got me a cool grand.

So you had like 1200 of them right?

Classics are SWILL !!!!!

Maybe that's why I just keep dropping in the rankings......

I wish. Only 51.

Has anyone's portfolio gone down in value?

eyoung429 · March 10, 2006 3:24AM

I only made $3 today. Went from 130 back down to 138. But still gaining!!!

mgoodm3 · March 10, 2006 3:25AM

I gained $15 today.

saintguru · March 10, 2006 3:27AM

Rob....you realized that I COULD HAVE bought the 1920 at auction?

I was much happier with what I did buy.

RYK · March 10, 2006 3:28AM

Rob....you realized that I COULD HAVE bought the 1920 at auction?

Well, it will benefit me in the WS if you buy if from JPK for twice what he paid. Go for it!

saintguru · March 10, 2006 3:32AM

how do you expect that coin to go up if it never sells? I wonder that about all the POP 1-2-3 coins.

RYK · March 10, 2006 3:39AM

I need to make sure that David Hall sees the quote where JPK says he has turned down over $100,000 for it...or you have to buy it.

saintguru · March 10, 2006 3:45AM

you do that. He'll do that after he checks the POPs on a few Saints that he's been promising me for a year.

jabba · March 10, 2006 4:11AM

I made $2760 and moved from 74th to 66th place with a total of $1,012,055.

Cladiator · March 10, 2006 4:13AM

HA!

Still frozen solid at one million $. Haven't gained or lost a single cent since day one. Currently in 199th.

<< Still frozen solid at one million $. Haven't gained or lost a single cent since day one. Currently in 199th. >>

Since there are currently 322 participants, I think we can assume that some are actually losing money in this market. Probably stock brokers and investment advisors.

saintguru · March 10, 2006 4:58AM

HEY BUB! I'm an investment advisor and I'm up 12K!

Russ · March 10, 2006 5:00AM

Even a blind hog occasionally finds an acorn.

I'm surprised IWOG isn't #1, being a coin insider and all.

Cladiator · March 10, 2006 5:13AM

<< I'm surprised IWOG isn't #1, being a coin insider and all. >>

Very nice!

RYK · March 10, 2006 5:32AM

I hear CoinDoctor rose to #3 buying underpriced dirty gold coins.

RegistryCoin · March 10, 2006 5:57AM

I hear that some "mechanical errors" within the PCGS price guide have been taken advantage of, ie. only, it was noticed that a 65 was priced less than the same coin in 64 or 63, then bought for WS purposes, than reported to PCGS for correction... Deserved "windfall" for correcting the problem, or unscrululous action, worthy of some consequence?

Windycity · March 10, 2006 7:13AM

I'm with Cladiator... I have been frozen at $1M since the beginning. However, I am in 200th place... how did Cladiator get to be 199!!!

MarineEAS1999 · March 10, 2006 7:35AM

One gain for $12500 a couple of days ago...

...now in 63rd place with $1,012,500.

Isn't it messed up that there are only 17 dealers so far.
A one in seventeen chance at $10000. WOW

Give me those odds anyday.

Russ · March 10, 2006 7:38AM

Everybody had the same opportunity to research value discrepancies. More power to those who made the effort to do so.
