OK, I admit it! At one time I collected real coins.

In a thread on the OFR everyone seemed shocked when Russ brought up the I collected real coins at one time... Yes in another lifetime I collected proof morgan dollars. Ah, back in the 80s and 90s! When overtime was plentyful and sidejobs paid in cash!! I went back to my old "My Heritage" account and pulled up the inventory to share. Since now I have been banished to the land of Modern Crap!
For the last time, the Mad Marty collection of Proof Morgan Dollars.

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

<< <i>So why such a down-turn? >>
In 2002 I got laid off from my job, it was 20 months before I had a full time job again. It came to the choice, pay off the house and cars or have a bank box full of coins! I had a fire sale. 2002/2003 was not a good time to be selling coins!

Not really, I enjoyed them while I had them! Now I'm having fun with medals and so called dollars, as well as modern crap!

Where's this Open Forum Refuge you speak of? It sounds interesting. Fascinating, even. I bet it's an exciting place for collectors and others to discuss a wide variety of topics that we are no longer allowed to discuss here on the PCGS forum.

<< <i>Marty...didn't you tell me you had a high grade 1889-CC Morgan at one time? >>
Yep, bought it from Barry Stuppler, a very nice 89-CC in 63DMPL. That is the one coin I really regret selling off.

Didn't you post a pic of that coin here? That was a great coin as well as a nice group of Morgan proof dollars.
