    He posted 9 days ago (May 12), and he was active today, so maybe you don't know how to find this info?

    I hope he is okay and corona free. Does anyone remember his son's eBay moniker? We could always message him if we can't reach Wondercoin directly.

    I think it is something along the lines of "monster coin" or something like that.

    He's a great guy to deal with. If you buy from him, be sure to remember to ask for the special US Coin Forum member discount. ;)

    Hi Grandam. Thank you for thinking about me (ditto for everyone else on the thread). I am fortunately doing well and my heart goes out to those who are not quite as fortunate. No one should let their guard down over the holiday weekend. Let’s all have a fun Memorial Day holiday, but, be safe! I really do believe there is a significant chance of a “second wave” if we are all not careful. I worry about large religious gatherings this weekend in the inner cities or involving minorities with a higher risk of contracting COVID. I hope the proper protocol is followed by everyone in attendance. That said, the First Amendment is a Very special right we all enjoy as US citizens.

    My son Justin who owns and operates the eBay handle “Monstercoinmart” (and website by the same name) can be reached easily at: justin@monstercoinmart.com or at (949) 310-3046. Sometimes I am tougher to connect with due to my travels. Justin can generally get a message to me in a matter of minutes wherever I might be. So, I have no excuse to not pay my coin Invoices on time, every time! Lol.

    Have a great weekend!

    I'm glad you're doing well.

    Mitch,

    Yes, I knew that you did travel to China once in a while and did wonder if perhaps you had gotten stuck over there. Glad to hear that you didn't and are doing well.

    OINK/ BidAsk...

    Mostly United States Philippine coins when the top auction houses put them under the World coin category! 😝

    But, Justhavingfun (RIP) did have a wonderful ancillary collection of Spanish Philippine coins that I am selling for his estate. And those are obviously considered World coins and will eventually be sold in a World coin auction.

    Grandam... I never got stuck in China, but let’s catch up on the past year. Send me your phone number in a PM and I will give you a call.

    Sorry to hear about Justhavingfun. I started the thread below on his toned MS68 Rossie he consigned to you in 2016.

    I was new to forums and serious coin collecting at the time and never in my dreams expected my thread to gain over 20,000 views and 15 pages of comments.

    Sure was epic!

    Yes... I still think about that dime! I believe (not 100% sure) it sold a couple more times after I sold it at Heritage. The last time, my son Justin sold it and, if I am not mistaken, it is presently in Mr. Hansen’s collection.

    Looks like ebay likes it too, The original listing is still up after 4 years!

    Thank goodness I don't collect Roosevelt dimes because I wouldn't recognize its grade and value. I'm surprised it's an MS68 with the chatter on the face and hits to the torch. It looks like an MS65 to me. Does all that coarse die polish enhance the grade?

    Commoncents.... Yep. The winning bidder in the Heritage sale on the coin was an astute investor (and often times active PCGS message board member) who turned a nice profit on the coin after his purchase and sale.

    Interestingly, four years later, the coin is now pop 2/0 now but still has a PG value today more than 2x the price the coin fetched in that Heritage sale back in 2016 as the pop 1/0. Go Roosies! Lol.
