in Buy, Sell, & Trade - U.S. Coins
I'm selling my pair of Ray Mercer's booklets "A Buyer's Guide to the Grading and Minting Characteristics of US Commemorative Coin's.

Volume 1: Isabella - Cincinnati
Volume 2: Cleveland - Huguenot

These booklets were published in 1986 and 1987 in a staple-bound soft-paper format. At the time, they contained the most detailed information regarding luster, strike and minting characteristics of the classic US Commemorative coin series.

Regretfully, Ray lost interest after Volume 2 and never completed the series.

The condition of Volume 1 is a 9/10 - there is some minor fading on the cover.
The condition of Volume 2 is a 8/10 - there is some minor fading on the cover

I'm also throwing in two older newsletters by Jim Iacovo published in 1984 on the classic commemorative series.

Price: $55 includes shipping via media mail. I will not break up the set.
Payment: Check / money order is preferred.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Ray Mercer was dealing coins in Stamford, Ct., back in the 60's when he was a teenager. After a stint in the Army he opened a beautiful store, uptown in Stamford, in Bull's Head. After that he moved the coin store to New Cannan, Ct. called Pennyweights. Had lots of fun talking commems and buying & selling them in the back room with him and Jim Iacovo. He was honest and quite knowledgeable about commems. Anacs would consult with him. He became disinterested after PCGS and NGC were formed and stuck with selling jewlery. I miss him and the fun we use to have as I was putting my commem set together.
