You know you have a keeper coin when...

RYK

despite that it is not offered for sale, multiple people make contact to buy it from you. It's a little bit of a Catch-22.



Sorry guys, not for sale.

Post a coin for which you have received unsolicited offers and any related anecdotes.

tightbudget

Nice coin though...how much?

Longacre

You wouldn’t sell it, even at an Obscene Profit™?

fc

i bid 500.

;-)

that has to be the best coin shown in quite some time. i have to go back to
rarecanadian's proof coin to think of something to be on par with it.

airplanenut

I've got quite a few people who want these...






...there are more, but I have to go to class

Please enter me in your great giveaway!

Fletcher

This one turned out to be much more popular than I had anticipated and I have had several offers since purchasing it ... I would like to find a 1794 Dollar in VF35 to match it.

123cents

You know it's a keeper coin when Robert Chambers is selling it.

Broadstruck

I have a few with open offers for instant funds... any day, week, month, or year I want to part with them.

Great to know if I'm ever in a Turkish Prison!

tjkillian

I do like the quarter, I'll bid $750.00.

mgoodm3

I should have kept it while I had it in my grasp.

ricko

Very nice .... stunning strike and condition. Cheers, RickO

I have a standing expression of interest from one of the leading collectors in the nation on this coin for his type set:

lasvegasteddy

stunning coins

IGWT

I'm thinking that knowledge of your recent decision to divest prompted offers that wouldn't otherwise have been made. At least that's what I'm telling myself as a sit here without having received a single expression of interest in any Shield 5c that I've ever posted.

1907Quarter

this humble little coin seems to drive atleast a few people nuts...

Please enter me in this awesome giveaway.

robec

Even though it's not in the same class as some of the coins posted above, I've had a few inquiries about this Barber.

NumisOxide

A few people expressed interest in this one.

Cgb

Robec,

That coin is magnificent, I can see how many would be interested in it.

No wonder TDN. It's very rare. One of the very few Seated Dollars with the "seeing eye" on the left breast.

MidLifeCrisis

A few have expressed interest in this

oreville

Everyone seems to pm me about this modern coin.

They all want it.

How could I let this one go?????

SkyMan

I've got a number of coins that unsolicited offers have been made on. This coin is probably the top coin for that category...




EDITED TO ADD: The scratch above the 50 is on the slab.

originalisbest

TDN's Dollar is a no brainer - but you know - that 1844 quarter is, in its own way, even sweeter.

coinlieutenant

You suck Robert. Just plain evil posting it again. I thought you were going to sell to me as a present for making LCDR.

I have a few that people have begged for. My 1872 half, dime and half dime...my 1916 five franc...and lots of my old bust halves.

Of course I begged a member for the 1872 half. I really miss my 1823 half that I got from TomB...but I know it is in good hands.

Artist

I have posted this coin on numerous occasions in several contests, and have received more than one PM inquiring about selling it:



I want to get it graded to see if it would make P1, but alas I am not a PCGS member.

Coxe

In the DMPL world, there is a short list of serious collectors for the top grades and the rarest of the rare. There is even a shorter list of those rarest of the rarre dates. When one of us gets one of those, the rest of us scream a collective, "YOU SUCK!" I have some of those coins and the other guys have some of the others. Unsolicited offers come all the time.....as if we would forget those we know are interested. Yes, those, indeed, are the keepers.

coindeuce

Luv it!

Coxe

Damn! That is hammered. Looks like a proof. Nice coin! Thanks for showing it.

fc

the 44O half is awesome! nice coins coming out this oct to be shown
on the forum.

oreville

Careful fc!

You might be accused of only being positive and optimistic and constantly being cheerful around here!

SeattleSlammer

This WC has gotten a number of unsolicited offers. The pic is good but the colors are far more vibrant in-hand.

lordmarcovan

Neither of the Airplanenut coins he posted are the one I want from him.

lordmarcovan

While it's far, FAR from the eye candy posted elsewhere in this thread, I did once receive admiration and an offer to buy this one, off my Holey Gold Hat, from a sage forum member who's an enthusiast of the 1860 "threeagle", which he apparently considers to be a sleeper date. (There's probably not much sleeper potential with my particular example, but it makes nice hat bling, and I like it.)

LeeG

That's a beauty Robert as are the other coins posted so far. I've had a few requests for this one:

lordmarcovan

Hahaha. I know you weren't talking about MY coin when you used the word "beauty".
