If PCGS gets around to updating the two dime I put on, there is a chance that I will improve my positionimage The question is where will I end up image I guess I will have to just wait

    No too much red up there right now Pat. You should be alright for a while. The taxman is killing me right now, so I will be dormant for a while.

    Pat:

    You sly dog...complain about all the up-grades and then send in two coins yourself! I wait and I worry until PCGS gets around to running the up-dates. But, all the while, I feel like there is a cross hair pointed directly at me. And, I suspect that while I might be spared this time, that won't always be the case!

    Actually, I am waiting to see what you've added but it's taking PCGS a while. I've got 1 coin headed my way, though goodness knows when it will arrive. And I got an email today that I apparently have some headed my way for my son's collection. So, watch out tggr (Ray)--"Bobby's Dime Collection" might be on the move!

    I'm still waiting for PCGS to update my dime image When that happens I will finally know where my set stands. I'm sure that 2 63 dime are not going to move me up a lot but every bit helpsimage

    Pat: Whats wrong with 63 Dimes. I don't know about you but a couple of My original 63 coins are a whole lot Prettier than a couple of the Bathed 64 or 65 coins that are within my possession. The grading services just seem to like the "Ghost Look" IMO. Thats what surprised Me so much when they up-graded the 25S from 63 to 64. It was original and with some Toning. Holy Smokes are they changing the way that they look at Original Coins??

        Pat:

        Congratulations--those two dimes surely jumped you up! You and I are neck and neck once again. The only saving grace (from my perspective!) is that I have another coin that is in PCGS's queue to be added. But, if you add in another two dimes, I'll be looking at the south end of a north-bound Pat!

        imageIt's nice to see your set stay the same or move up! I woun't be adding more dimes anytime soonimage I do know that I am getting one or two within two or three monthsimage The more dimes you get the harder it becomes to increase the number in the set! some of the dimes are costlyimage but all have the same goals, to complete the set and enjoy each others updates. I wouldn't mind being on the bottom of the list with a nice completed set. Knowing that all here have better completed setsimage

        Congratulations, Pat, I don't check the standings out very much but you are really high up there! Wow!

        New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

        Now if I can only get Jim's and Mark's footprints off my back!!! image
        Mark,
        What was that,... one step forward and one step back?!? LOL image
        Pat,
        I hope that your set really isn't "larger than what appears" in my rear-view-mirror! image
        Troy (or others),
        I have a few extras from upgrading that would help your set. All were bought raw, and were "made" by myself through my local dealer (all are "PQ" for the grade). Prices are right and satisfaction guarantied. PM me if interested.
