I will be taking 2019 off. I am net selling and will continue to sell some things in 2019, but plan to make no purchases for a year. I will then revisit the hobby next December and see how I am feeling about how collecting fits into my life.
My resolution will be to stop wasting my time looking at the weekly auctions at one of the large coin auction companies (sorry no name- I do not want to get banned). There seems to be a lot of what may be technically correctly graded, but ugly coins, or what I would consider problem coins that are in straight graded holders, in these auctions. Plus everything seems to sell at full retail. I guess it is hard to get a good price when you are bidding against the house!

CAC grades tough, when I saw @Senator32 CAC YouTube videos submission many of his submissions were spectacular examples of the coin but not cac vorthy
Is this really not CAC worthy at the current grade? Are these coins that CAC would approve at a different grade, or ones they would never approve at any grade?

Find an authentic VF 16-D Mercury for an AG price.
Actually, that was my 2018 resolution and, will probably be my resolution in 2020, 2021. 2022...…..
Win the lottery, buy the last 6 coins for my box of 20.

Always good to place yourself at auctions 👍
@bobsr I wish you luck on the lottery 😄
Same resolution as every year...
Buy more coins!
Now that New Years is near this conversation might be more caught up

I think you can just call and ask
