My ANA purchases (D and O gold coins)

Well, I could not make the show, but it did not stop me from getting a couple of nice coins (nice coins and excellent photography courtesy of Doug Winter):

KlectorKid · August 4, 2003 1:26PM

I want pics of your half eagle. Sounds like a nice one.

Robert, those sure are nice coins! A purchase like that would have used up my coin budget for a year! What are they graded? mike

RYK · August 4, 2003 9:28PM

Mike,

The $2.50 is PCGS-58, and the $5 is NGC-58. I may be done for the year as well.

If you were going to only buy two coins a year I think you made some very good choices. mike

Great additions to an already top notch southern mint gold collection

Nice finds (kudos to Doug). So that's what a southern branch mint classic head $2.50 is suppose to look like. I guess my 1839-C $2.5 is missing a little detail

PMH,

I like your 39-C just fine. Circulated southern gold coins have quite a bit of chararcter. I particularly like them dark and "crusty".

ohbaby · August 6, 2003 1:35PM

RYH,

Super! I bid on a boatload of these classics from southern mints and won none, not even close.

BTW, you suck!

Dahlonega · August 6, 2003 1:48PM

Great coins...nice and 'original' appearing. Really like the 39-O quarter eagle super type coin.

RYK · August 6, 2003 2:10PM

Ohbaby,

Thanks...I think. I bid a few and was blown away on several and the underbidder on a couple. I tend to not bid aggressively because I am afraid of making a mistake. I would rather go through the dealer route.

If you are interested in southern gold, you might consider joining the Southern Gold Society. PM me if you want more info.

I love the classic head. This is a very pleasing example also. I usually see these in 61 and 55 they are very edgey unlike this one.

mrcommem · August 6, 2003 3:02PM

Hello Robert,

It looks as if you made some nice acquisitions. I really like your New Orleans quarter eagle. The Dahlonega looks nice too. Looks like Doug has been doing a good job.
