Finally! I'll be closing on a house this afternoon! This marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life and the end of a particularly difficult year. Obviously, in the run up to buying a house, I've not spent a whole lot of money on coins... post a coin that you were happy to "close" the deal on. Here's one I kept that's part of the 7070 Type Set I'm rebuilding..

    Congratulations on closing on your house!!! I'm sure it's a great feeling and a feeling of relief at the same time.

    Here's a piece that took me a while to get, but that happy that I was able to close the deal on.

    is the house made from rolls of cents?

    ...yeah, I hope what I now lack in "cents" is made up for with "sense"... ;-)

    More like since 2019 for me and I sold off some coins as well. On top of it all, I'm just about done with getting a divorce too... another milestone... sort of like the cherry on top! ;-)

    Congratulations. Lot of hard work that finally pays off, I bet. ;)
    Here's my Closer. After finding about 30 W Quarters. I had to sift through the best from the 30. So after I decided which was the one. I finally "closed", t h e deal and sent it out to PCGS
    It came back a marvelous

    I just love dark copper for some reason, and your example is a thing of beauty lkenefic.

    Congrats on the house! I bit off a little more than I could chew on this coin and it took me a couple of payments and a cooperative seller to let me pay it off on the "never-never".

    Such a ridiculously nice coin!

    Not the first... but I'll definitely be here a while. At least until I retire.

    One of the huge draws to putting in an offer was "all new systems throughout"... HVAC, Water heater, furnace, electrical box, and all new appliances... oven, microwave, washer/drier, ect... I was anticipating buying a house that might have needed a little work, but this one is about as "turnkey" as I saw. The back yard is pretty rough, but that gives me something to do! ;-)

    That's an excellent rate and the important thing is that it is FIXED.

    Also, nice not having to pay the PMI.

    Way to go!!
