    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.

    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

    But I bought lunch instead. image

    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

    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.
