Problem and junky coin tag - at long last - finally made it home

claychaser · December 18, 2006 1:48PM

Would anybody be interested in a tag to do some spring cleaning of your problem coins? All coin problems, such as cleaned, whizzed, dipped, AT, etc must be disclosed, and tag members could feel free to take legit shots at the coins in the tag. Holed and damaged coins would be welcome too.

The box has finally made it home, and my YN is checking out the contents.

Thanks to all who participated.

cullenbryant · December 18, 2006 2:16PM

This could be a lot of fun, problems , slicks and any kind of item in ones collection... tokens etc..
not concentrating so much on value but having a good time. i'm in.
tag your it.

mojoman · December 18, 2006 10:43PM

Musky1011 · December 19, 2006 6:39AM

Jim

claychaser · December 19, 2006 2:30PM

I'll plan on launching the tag after Christmas. No ugly ties allowed in the box, but ugly coins are!

Let's try for a minimum of 5 before we commit to start.

Boom · December 19, 2006 8:32PM

Well, I guess I'll be the 5th spoke in the wheel. Let's get it on.

eyoung429 · December 20, 2006 12:20AM

Hell, count me in!!!!!

Millertime · December 20, 2006 12:29AM

Count me in also. I'm sure I can find a couple junkers, which would probably be anything in my pre-forum life.

Millertime

claychaser · December 20, 2006 1:15AM

Looks like we have enough interest. I'll leave the sign up open, cap it at 10 people, and start this one after Christmas!

dcamp78 · December 26, 2006 4:37AM

I'm interested. Let us all know the rules.

claychaser · December 26, 2006 5:32AM

Hi dcamp78!

PM me with your name, address, contact phone numbers. I'll keep this just in case we need to contact you, or if the forum goes poof! The rules will be similar to my "focus on classics" tag, except this will be for problem, junky and even moderns. I'll call it the "spring cleaning" tag - LOL.

Anyone else interested?

Boom · December 26, 2006 6:26PM

Let's roll. You asked for 5. We now have 8.

Maybe now it won't be as long a wait.

Damn, I'm a Poet

And didn't even know it.

arlea1957 · December 26, 2006 6:45PM

been awhile and this sounds nice a low key, count me in....

Boom · December 26, 2006 7:22PM

That's Nine ... do I hear TEN?

dcamp78 · December 30, 2006 9:50AM

PM sent.

claychaser · December 30, 2006 9:58AM

Sorry guys about the delay in starting. I hope to launch on Wednesday, January 3. I did pick up some more cool junky coins for the tag tho.....

I appreciate the offers but my kids are not for sale.

claychaser · January 4, 2007 2:57PM

<< no dogs or gators in the box >>

Don't tempt me cause I just may put a few "heart checkers" in the box that'll JUMP right out at you!

mojoman · January 8, 2007 12:54AM

<< $100,000,000.00 is NOT a lot of business to do in two days! >>

I was so close

but unless you are a oil sheik,THAT is NOT a lot of business, just raise the price of crude oil a few dollars

$100,000.000.00 what would any of us do with that kind of money?

this is a topic for another forum lol

claychaser · January 8, 2007 2:20AM

Hi Mojo,

Got the tag comin' to ya. Added some more stuff to make the "throw weight" test!

Mailed 1/8/07 - will post tracking #'s later.

There will be a dollar and a half dolar tube - you gotta open 'em up because I filled them up with the different coins and tokens.

If anybody wants to put in junk 90% or 40% silver, figure 9X on the 90% and 4X on the 40%.

I would like some railroad related tokens if anybody has 'em.

arlea1957 · January 10, 2007 7:34AM

I'm gonna throw in some marbles... free for the taking... only iffin you have kids... or fish tanks...lol.... I believe Clay already got some and a railroad lock.

Hi fellas. I'm still here and hope to have these on the move within the next day or two.

I've had zero time thus far but hopefully will, later today.

Stay tuned.

Boom · January 25, 2007 1:35AM

Progress report. Just keeping everyone posted. As you all know I am in posession of BOTH tags.

In an effort to save time suffice to say that I am just opening the other tag box today.

I ask everyones' patience at this time, particularly with all I've been dealing with.

Finally wrapped up a private client's account yesterday, thank God, and dealing with "other events."

One day at a time, doing the best we can. This tag box is next to be opened and dealt with.

I will keep everyone abreast off the goings on round here. It's cool!

Boom · January 27, 2007 1:49AM

Box leaves Monday, for sure!

Problem and junky coin tag - at long last - finally made it home
