RYK, Do you miss your Dalonega collection yet?

Sellers remorse or no regrets, which is it?

    Mostly no regrets. Last night, as I was putting together a package, I kept thinking, "Well, maybe I should keep this one, too." Alas, I sealed them up in the box and sent them away, along with a bunch of other interesting gold pieces which will be offered soon for sale. It's time for me to move on.

    I tried to buy RYK's collection in toto, but he would not agree to regular and periodic payments over 39 years.

  • With the proceeds from the upcoming sale you should be able to go in any direction you want. Good luck with whatever you choose.

    I see that you are still here lurking and replying. I'm glad that you have given us a chance to temporarily take posession of some treasures. It's a wise man who keeps the pot stirring for us, and not hoarding the treasures that belong to the numismatic world. Thanks for sharing both your treasure and knowledge.

    Word has it that RYK is going to put it all on "29" on the Roulette wheel at Harrah's.

    RYK warned us that he would still participate on the boards. image
  • I think RYK had one of the most interesting collections on the board. I wish I had the money to purchase them.image
  • Without spamming, I just want to know, where are RYK's coins going to be listed. I have been drooling over them for years and I hope I can buy one or two.

    Doug Winter will be selling his collection.

    I have it on good authority that RYK is not dying (he told me so). He will be hanging around these parts and throwing in his two cents on occasion. I got all excited when I heard he was selling his collection and had 61-D $5's dancing in my head. But darn it, he's keeping his 61-D $5image, as well as a few others of his favorites.
  • No wonder you are so crabby!! That explains it!
