    Just curious where you found so many type 2 sets, and if you were fortunate enough to not have to pay the type to money for those SBAs. Nice score.

    Lots of hard looking! Do you know there are still dealers out there who don't know what a T2 looks like, and really doesn't care! I paid $6 per set and still have another 5 sets in the slab factory!!

    That's a lot of new PF69 UCAMS to add to the pop report. BTW - It's been said that modern collectors won't buy NGC moderns because they are so obviously overgraded compared to PCGS moderns. Smoe SBA collector said that to me. image

    Do you know a market maker? If not, how are you going to sell those coins?

    Just curious, are these dealers ok with you flipping through 50+ proof sets, or did you build a rapport before you asked to flip through all their sets?

    Most dealers I deal with have no problems with me flipping through sets, one dealer just lets me go behind the counter to the drawers where they are kept.. Because I put them all back in order!! A few dealers even save cameo sets for me because they know I'll pay ASK for a nice set!image

    Marty, what percent of the Type 2 69UC SBAs have you made now?

    Hardly any, dealers usually check the SBA. Longtimecollector made 5, I think I have made maybe 15 or so.

    I love it when Marty makes a hit like this.
    Keeps him busy finding "hairy heads" I may need....
    ...and I don't mind paying him for his expertise either.

    Speaking of which ..has the one come back from pcgs that we spoke about?

    what i get thinking about after seeing those grades,
    is there is very little to improve on.

    PF69s left and right.
