    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......

    Three months ago, TDN generously permitted me to buy his half share and was very, very reasonable about it too. I finally paid him off in full last week.

    Another salute to him!

    Laura Sperber must be also mentioned as she counseled me (as well as TDN) without compensation four months ago to help make things work so smoothly.

    (Maybe he used the funds to buy that lovely 1834 25c in PCGS MS-64???image) >>



    Actually, I used the funds to buy an engagement ring. image Well, part of one anyways! lol

    I can see how you justified spending millions on the Chain Cent, but can't see how you justified that one... image Justttt messin with you - congrats on that as well! image

    This is one of my favorite stories to arise on the board as well, the original thread is actually the only forum page I have in my favorites list.
    Want to buy an auction catalog for the William Hesslein Sale (December 2, 1926). Thanks to all those who have helped us obtain the others!!!
