(Update) BOOM's Quarters has been SOLD to a Buyer whose identity I will respect by keeping it confidential.
The SALE is FINAL and my little set is now Officially Retired!
It's been a blast putting this awesomely PQ set together.
The "New Owner" is well educated in this series and saw every coin IN HAND! I KNOW he is VERY satisfied!
It's been a great run but Here is where I get off!
I trust that the new caretaker will take it to new heights.
*** Update - I DO have a number of PCGS Registry caliber Washington Quarters available to fellow Registry participants and set builders. Contact me for pix and details.***

Nice set.
Thank you.
Dave
thread..as you have a habit of doing.I dont believe a word of it.
Al
First of all, I could care less what you will "have" or not.
Perhaps you missed the obvious word "Pending."
NOWHERE did I state that I've sold it for $37,000. What was edited out was my opening asking price along with the Venue in which it was offered. Since both are no longer applicable, they're gone.
Wondercoin
NO value here.
As far as I'm concerned the moderator can lock it up or take it away.
This is Nonsense.
Glad you were able to make a deal for your nice set.

I now need to contact PCGS in order to "retire" the set, tie up the loose ends (and ALL that comes with it) so that the new owner may do as he pleases with it.
I am VERY satisfied and am certain the new Owner is as well. He was able to see every coin "in hand."
Thanks.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
I'm not saying this simply because I assembled this set but rather as a result of seeking out the most appealing (to me) specimen I could find.
Whereas most begin with the lesser coins, I began with PQ keys ... and it shows, quite clearly. There are some real beauties there!
You stuck it though and now you are enjoying the fruits of your efforts.
You going to take it easy before toying with another set of something else?
EDITED to correct spelling mistake.
I think I'll just take it easy for a while.
Thanks Boom!!!
<< <i>Thanks Oreville and Lee and all the rest of you guys. It's a strange feeling, indeed!

No you won't Boom! You are just as obsessed by coin collecting as you have always been!
The name is LEE!

<< <i>I am the new owner of Boom's quarters. Listed in the registry as Barry Gardner's Washies. Lovely collection of PQ cions!
Thanks Boom!!! >>
Thanks for letting us know......but I think you just let some air out of some of the windbags that had some negative speculation on the sale (ie....thinking it didn't sell).
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

In memory of the USAF Security Forces lost: A1C Elizabeth N.

Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...

Its very refreshing to confirm something boom posted.
for his Privacy. Having done so, I am now at liberty to say, "You are quite Welcome, Barry."
I am quite confident that you will be able to take it to newer heights. Enjoy.
DocG is a true Class Act! I could not have hand-picked or asked for a better person to hand
this set over to. There are many very unique pieces in this set.
I can close my eyes and still "see" every last piece. Numbers may count but Beauty is EVERYTHING!
I wish ALL of you, all the best. Even you, Palmieri. Looks like you were wrong, Tex. Are you Man enough to ..... ??
Never mind. It REALLY doesn't matter! BTW, thanks Craig. I appreciate the compliment. You're OK & I truly am sorry for
things I should never have said. It was wrong of me and I hope you Forgive me!
Thank you ALL for the very nice compliments regarding the Quality of the set. I DO appreciate it
just as I appreciate each & every one of YOU.
David (Poole), remember when?? Looks like I bet on the right Horse, huh? You know what I am
referring to! Congratulations on your accomplishment & forever making me a part of your great set.
Congratulations to you, DocG. I know the set will be well taken care of.
Best Wishes,

Doc- nice set, Warren does have a good eye for coins.
Basically I am devoted to a couple more "specialized" areas -
none even remotely involving Washington Quarters. Guess if you care to
but I doubt anyone would even come close to being right.
Lee is right, as usual IMHO, about "once in your blood it's in for Life."
One of the sets is basically finished however it remains RAW,
safely stored in a manner that prevents any possibity of damage.
Maybe someday I'll have these coins graded but for now they are
coming along quite nicely, stored as they are. I've always like this "set".
The coins are so unique that there can be no accidental mistakes
regarding ownership. Mistakes do take place, given volumes involved.
It's inevitable and to be expected. PCGS has always been quite fair
with me and in handling my coins - I must say. Thanks guys.
As for the others .......
BTW - to keep this thread on track, I DO have a multitude of Registry
caliber PCGS certified Washington Quarters left, for SALE to set builders
in need. Feel free to contact me anytime. I'd be more than happy to
work with any and all of you in the building of YOUR Registry Sets.
Good Day all.
