the guy is buying soup to nuts everything thinking he is the next elaisberg. it is well known he is not a quality wonk. elasiberg at least got lucky and bought the clapp coins. this guy has every crumb selling him.
so long as he is enjoying himself-everyone will be happy.
1) no one has unlimited funds but the govt. He may have a lot of money but it is limited. 2) if he wants to be the next Eliasberg he has to buy a lot of coins ---he can't go slowly 3) you want great quality but if your goal is to have every coin you need to compromise on quality to some degree
The core of this collection was the Charles Roberts collection. There are many very nice coins in this collection. The 1918 s in 65+ red ,the 1931 s in 66 + red and the 1935 in 68 red are very nice
to mention a few.
The core of the Thomas Irwin collection from 1909-1958 was bought in tact
Even I use to buy complete collections regularly for one or more coins. However most of the time the coins were in albums and I always bought the collections cheaply.
Let's give this guy a chance to see how his collection develops

I agree---I don't understand the negativity. I think it's exciting to see what he accomplishes
ugh this bird has unlimited funds. he has spent many millions since the summer-ask any major dealer. the guy is no pogue or simpson, he wants quantity, not quality (he is a plastic buyer). saw him in auction at the goldberg copper sale.
in 20-30 years his coins probably will be fresh and under graded! Go DL!

Stewart,
I would be suprised if Hansen did not try to call you first. Maybe your phone number is unlisted, or you did not recognize his phone number on your caller ID and did not take the call.
But I do not think you would have sold for God's money........
I do not think that True Legends ever sell their coins. But do not let anyone know that they will be buried with you. LOL.

He has been buying other top Registry Sets.
Give me unlimited funds and I could have done the same.
In many series yes, in other series not so much

Maybe he should slow down.
