Russ
Nice ones or two's. I keep looking for them myself but those are great.
What are you going to do? earings or back to a necklace?
Tom

My "2 cent junk or what" will back from Anacs next week.

Flea Bay just gets better and better, eh Russ?

And, I got those suckers for less than half my max! I was willing to go $2.10!

Russ, NCNE

Placid · October 22, 2003 4:08AM

$25.00 shipping

Clankeye · October 22, 2003 4:08AM

So what are you going to do with them? Turn them into earrings?

They'd accessorize very well with a new lavender Slab Caddy.

Outside of postage there is a "special handling charge of $3. per box". I guess at $2.00 per coin you still can't go wrong.

Russ · October 22, 2003 4:09AM

You know, an earring isn't a bad idea. I have an old piercing I could probably re-puncture. Shouldn't be too bloody.

I just got the notice from this seller, and now I'm going to have to re-write my coin budget. They only charged me $1.49 total for shipping. What to do with this extra money?

<< What to do with this extra money? >>

There's a nice collection of gospel music being offered on late night television these days. It would make a fine sound track to cruize eBay to.

mgoodm3 · October 22, 2003 4:49AM

What to do with the extra money - get nipple rings and put the two centers to good use.

Nah, I cruise eBay with Funk / Mason Resurrection.

Lordmarcovan sure was asleep at the wheel with that auction.

CarlWohlforth · October 22, 2003 6:31AM

I looked at those but didn't bid. I do need a 2 cent piece for my holed coin hat. But I did want one with a date

So why not start a type coin hat Russ? Or maybe go for the gusto and start a vest?

paigowjohnny · October 22, 2003 6:44AM

Killer snipe Russ

relayer · October 22, 2003 7:25AM

I tried to tell told LordM about these earlier

I guess Russ is the only one to have read my post.

lordmarcovan · October 22, 2003 7:32AM

Kewl!

I already have a "Red UNC" holey, believe it or not. (Well, OK, it's really a cleaned slider, but I "ripped" it, too, in a cheap junk lot.)

Nicely done.

Now you just need a hat. Want my top hat (sans coins and beads but with the swivels still attached)? I'm gonna swap it. I just switched to an Indiana Jones- style fedora for Holey Gold Hat II. The old Holey Gold Hat (the top hat seen in my icon) will of course be without gold coins, but I will probably put some other spare holey coins on the swivels before I swap it. With the 1798 cent and those two centers, you've got a respectable start toward a holey coin garment of some sort.

lordmarcovan · October 22, 2003 7:34AM

PS- I did miss that link. Thanks anyway, relayer!

Russ · October 22, 2003 7:50AM

<< I guess Russ is the only one to have read my post. >>

Relayer,

I had those pups on my snipe list as soon as they went live. I thought for sure your post was going to screw me out of this monster acquisition!

Russ, NCNE

lordmarcovan · October 22, 2003 7:56AM

I guess that's what I get for "going Yeti" for the last several days.

Ah, well. I probably wouldn't have bid on 'em, anyway, 'cause I have two higher-grade holeys already.

Nice grab, though.

relayer · October 22, 2003 8:00AM

<< I thought for sure your post was going to screw me out of this monster acquisition >>

Yeah, you'd think you would have had to at least pay $1.04 for them

1jester · October 22, 2003 8:07AM

Goodness! First, it's meLord. Then Russ, and now Carl????? What's this world coming to? When will the madness end?!

Russ · October 22, 2003 8:19AM

I figured this one needed some company:

Ain't this hobby fun?

With a closing cost of .99 cents and an additional $3.00 tacked on for "handling" along with the $1.49 for postage you would think SOMEONE among the hundred or so people who visited this auction someone would have stepped up!

Looks like they're from different dies.

Man, I ripped these Two Cent Pieces!!!!
