New purchases from Fort Worth today!

etexmikeetexmike Posts: 6,852 ✭✭✭
I spent about four hours walking the bourse floor today and saw a lot of great coins.

I stopped in to say hello to several dealers and most of them post here on the boards from time to time.

I tried to sell a few coins but all that looked at what I was trying to sell told me that the coins were very nice but just not what they were looking for. I only sought out the dealers that had the same type of coins on their web sites or in their cases. One dealer did offer me $300 back of my asking price on one coin but as it was just a "wanting to sell" and not a "need to sell" I passed on the offer. I just might have a few things listed on the BST forum next week. image

When I can't make any deals on coins to purchase I know that I can always find a Morgan dollar or two to take home. I do have a weakness for those big pieces of silver. image

Here a couple of Morgans from PQollars and Don Rinkor who usually share a table at most shows.

These are pics from their sites and will do for the time being as I am staying with friends in Rockwall (about an hour or so east of Fort Worth) and will be making the other 2 1/2 hour drive part of the journey back home tomorrow.

With apologies to Steve and Don for using their images of my buys today.

    Don Rinkor and Steve Twitty are super guys to do business with. They both manage to get a few bucks from me when we meet up at shows. image

    I like them both! image
  • If I collected Morgans for looks other than Target toned, it'd be these. I like the looks of them. image

    That CC would look awesome (better at least) if it had the same lighting as the 85 philly.

    I'll bet that is killer in hand!!

    Right mint mark too!!!!!!!

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    That 81-CC made my monitor Freeze Up! image
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    It really is killer in hand. I just love those black and white Morgans.

    Mark Goodman does all of my family portraits. image These 2 Morgans and a few other coins will be off to Oregon next week. I'll post the updated pics then.
