    The ones at Heritage last week brought a lot less than similar pieces at Stack's over the past year or two -- but they matched the prices a few years ago at Stack's. I can't decide if the Stack's prices are the anomaly, or the Heritage ones are...

    Yes. And you know who I've also been helping to complete a set.
    Presently working on adding an AC-15a to my collection. image

  • Coindeuce,

    I have an AC-15a in my collection but it isn't the highest of grade. I have seen one in my life that I really liked, but alas it wasn't for sale. Most of these, including the copper ones ,are somewhat impaired in my opinion.

    What say you?

  • Jonathanb,

    I agree the prices were low, very low. I didn't even know they were in that sale until it was too lateimage

    njcc - I would hazard a guess that the AC-15a that is coming to me is, well image

    Enjoyed looking at them at the FUN show - didn't buy one though - I need fewer collecting interests, not more.

    Did buy the book on Assays - many great designs and a few forgettable ones.

    I have a nice smattering, but haven't been adding anything recently.
