With all the new stuff being cranked out by the mint, and all the online auction forums now available have you found that you have overspent your coin budget this year? I have to wonder if this is part of the problem with the soft prices on Ebay and other sales venues. I know the argument that nice coins allways sell good, yet I have seen many "Nice" coins going unsold.
On BS&T Now: Nothing.

I'm being real picky on the proof IHC's, but the money not spent isn't burning a hole in my pocket.

I had to laugh, if only because I haven't had a firm budget lately... If I did, I would have outspent it by now....

I just can't seem to find reasonably priced nice material, but I keep looking.
But I'm locked and loaded for bear if I find something nice.

Oh and I also bought a nice MS62 Half Eagle a really nice MS63 Indian quarter eagle and a fantastic AU58 Liberty Half Eagle that were all about equal to my budget.

I would have if there had been a platimum anniversary set.
I also ran into a very rare Martin Van Buren political medalet in a grade that FAR exceeded anything I had ever seen. This one was the "reject" from the John Ford collection. I paid "too much" for that one, but I know I'll never see a better one. I've been looking at these things from more than 20 years.
i do not buy stupid widgets that are available every day of the year.
i try to buy rare coins, which by their very nature do not come up
for sale very often. i do not need a newp fix every week.
so no.
Looking for reasonable silver lots (rolls or bars preferred). PM me with what you have.
