  • I already spent my refund on an 1801 S-218 large cent. What cash I have left I'm hoarding for EAC, I hope to find a 1793 S-1 chain cent I can afford so I can finish them off.

    $65,000 owed between federal and state taxes. I am missing out on just about any coin(s) outside of the super-rare or highest pop. realm. But if I didn't have to pay. I would either put it into savings or go loose with a group of strippers, I still haven't decided which would be more prudent.

    I can't imagine that you're hurting too badly there, chum.

    Dang ARCO! That's a lot of coin (literally.)

    Reminds me of a great local dealer I know who wishes he MADE as much as a wholesaler friend of his PAYS quarterly in taxes! image

    I could have gotten a handful of common worn out wheat cents with my return.

    But I bought lunch instead. image

    My dad prolly coulda finished his seated $ set for the amount of taxes he had to pay on the new building he bought for his business, ouch!
    Want to buy an auction catalog for the William Hesslein Sale (December 2, 1926). Thanks to all those who have helped us obtain the others!!!

  • wow those large cents must be really nice. I am impressed for sure. Are they all certified??
  • cladiator, thatsa just where this years went......and since it went there so will all the returns in the future for sure, but then who wants to live alone !!

    Lol, I got just under 400$ back for my taxes and it hasn't been spent yet; though it could easily be.

    Got a $257 speeding ticket, $647 to fix my truck, $306 payment and $148 in insurance due all around the 25th image. It's a shame I missed my welcome note to adult life!

  • I spent a good amount in Jan. on engagement and wedding rings too, but well worth it. She cuddles much better than silver coins.image

    well I sure woulda pounded on that decent fully struck "BU" 1909-o quarter that Klondike just sold on ebay for 1300.
    We're all born MS70. I'm about a Fine 15 right now.
  • If I would have got back the amount I had to pay....a nice 1913-S Type 2 Buffalo in a PCGS AU58 would have been tempting!

    Between state and federal, I got back about an 1880-s morgan in 63pl, barely!! Hoping for an 1893-s next time.
