Nice score!!!

fair price for a true 65fb...nice coin, and I agree, you are on the move again....good job!

fcloud · April 10, 2003 11:47AM

I feel fairly lucky right now. I know I am moving into the tougher dates and to pick up that many coins in such a short time is something I know will not continue to happen.

CheckersFred · April 10, 2003 11:56AM

lookin' good. as much as i enjoy coins, i am seldom in a position to pick up six at a time. checkers

Checkers, your up to 3 posts...good for you...

FC, nice batch.....when you add them all you gotta worn everyone so we don't have a cardiac when we drop a few

Marc, I'll worn before I add the coins, but keep in mind I am on the varieties set, so I won't probably won't impact anyone.

Ken, Which dates did you get from Mercury1.

Fairlaneman · April 10, 2003 12:21PM

Can't Tell.....People here in the Merc crowd will Flame the Hell out of me if I tell.

Just common dates......OK just common late dates........OK a 37S and a couple of others.

Have to get My set back up to 90% so I can use the Free Submissions. These are Fillers for the time being. Well maybe after they are seen the mind could change.

Ken

fcloud · April 10, 2003 12:31PM

Ken,

I was wondering if you were going for 90% complete again. I noticed you are moving up.

Dimetime · April 10, 2003 12:39PM

Ken I picked up 3 from mercury1. All upgrades.

New rules, I'm in a no passing lane so everyone stay where you are. You guys are making it hard to sleep with all the lights in my mirrors. J Voege

Looks like we're in for a red weekend

FC, I reakon you'd have more fun in the main Merc registry, the varieties are kinda quiet lonely crowd

Marc

Edited: FC, never mind did not realize A.R.S. is you too

Fairlaneman · April 10, 2003 12:54PM

Tony thats what I am doing. When I sold a few a while back I thought there were enough extras in my collection of these things that would keep me at 90 %. I did add a couple of 67's on the sly. Dont think I said much about them.

A Tactical Blunder on My part.

Nice additions.
I can see your lights approachin' in my rear-view.

I'll pull over a little, but not for long.

fcloud,

Thats a nice strike on that 27, nice find! Now you realize that if you work this correctly, you've got red Fridays covered for 7 weeks! Yeah right.

I picked up 2 from Mercury1, the 19-P 63FB and the 26-P 63FB. Don't think I'll be passing or anything, just maintaining! I'm about to start to get into that territory where I am being chased much more than I am chasing! I considered upgrading my 16-S, but would have only been 1 point, glad to see you got it. Also considered his 39-S 64FB, but I really really want to hold out for a 65FB.

Regards,

Wayne

Wow, all those nice coin, and none for me. Gee Wizz. You guys did good.

Ken, can you get free submissions when you had 90% last time , can you take another when you get 90% again ? Is it yearly, or is it a one time thingie.

Walt <---from the quiet lonely group. LOL

Fairlaneman · April 10, 2003 9:15PM

Walt I had the authorization number for the submissions when the set was at 90% before but did not use the submissions. I am not sure PCGS will honor the submissions without the set being at 90% now. The thinking is to just get it back up to 90%. I'm sure they would not give me 4 more and the thought did not enter my mind.

Man it looks like the Merc Group might want to be renamed the "Vulture Squad". Talk about picking a guys Mercury Set clean in nothing flat.

OK, yall' asked for it, so now I feel real silly with these few non-unc, mixed in with the super coins in the rest of my set, but it does make more sense to show what you do have and work from that.....OK, I hear ya! Hand signal......parden me Ken. YEA!!!! 100% for about a month now...

Fairlaneman · April 11, 2003 6:19AM

Dennis your GPA dropped 7+ points.

Hmmm....I'll blow by you again when the three dimes I bought arrive.

Anyway its cool the Set is 100%. Working on Up-Grades now, Huh ?

python1 · April 11, 2003 7:18AM

Thanks, yep...time for some money first, then the upgrades...or should i buy the upgrades then pay later...hmmmmmmm???? I think I will save first....seems to work out better for me.....

izzy452 · April 11, 2003 8:27AM

Dennis , congrats on the 100% Cool set.

Walt

fcloud · April 11, 2003 8:47AM

Dennis, congrats on 100% complete!

Wayne, covered for seven Fridays? Naw, just one maybe two.

Everyone, Thanks for the comments, these coins will go in the varieties set, and I think I will be only upgrading one, so that will hit the other set.

Tony

Dimetime · April 11, 2003 11:47PM

Nice Dennis. I see I'm going to have to go to warp to keep my place in line. Arm the phasers, any one trying to pass will be fired on.

Where are you my little 1927-s sweetheart? Daddys looking for you. JVoege
