I have attempted to spread my collection over several major series, all are PCGS

except the carved coins, which PCGS does not grade.

in order to spread the risk. Each coin is a superb example for the grade with NT.

This collection is intended to stand the test of time and swings in the market cycles.

    Bear sold the bulk of his coins last year.

    Non of the Commems have bears on them.

    But as you can see, a few examples in

    several series, can make a very nice collection.

    My Focus now is to have several nice examples

    in each of several classic series. And a circulated

    set of Barbers to keep me busy. This set represents

    a great deal of thought as to how best to spread

    my resources and risks. It also would seem to offer good

    long term profit possibilities.

    No, PCGS does not grade these Carved coins.

    Perhaps some day I will have someone take pictures

    of these wonderful coins , so I can share them with the

    Forum.
