You have to quickly assemble a box of 20 coins. Requirements are as follows.
All U.S. coins.
Each dated pre 1965.
No silver, gold, copper or nickel.
Each coin must be graded by PCGS or NGC.
Your budget for all of the coins is no more than $300.
Dupes are ok.

Steel cents would fit the bill.
I pass ........... way too much work
....and this is the only Mr. Phelps I've been talking to .....
Plat and Palladium and steel. What else?
He said less than $300
Well that took all of a minute.

But they"re not slabed
The NGC lot is consecutively numbered. Must have taken him forever to find all those coins in order.
Not sure on cost.

Is there a 1/100 oz?
It was so small, I lost it.
1/10oz platinum and steel cents is about it, yeah?

So are you the winning bidder? The consecutive numbers of the same gradr is impressive!
I did win the lot. Have been fascinated with the steel cent since my brother showed me a circulated one when I was about 6 years old. I figured that it was the only one in the world, well out side of the 200 million others, it was.
Congrats, I do love the look of a clean steel cent, not to mention his 25 brothers. IMO you got a good deal.
Interesting post, really got me thinking !!!
Tough to buy those for under melt.
Now that is interesting... I have a couple rolls of steel cents... original. That is an amazing set and sequentially numbered as well. Good buy. Cheers, RickO
