Re: After reading Russ's post about the Post Office I started thinking about how many PQ valuable coins
I think it would be more than some would think. If Russ has lost 5 packages in 10 years, that's 1 coin every 2 years, from only Russ. If you get a large Post Office (NYC for example) they could have hundreds of packages lost. I bet it adds up. Maybe not a ton of coins, but some are lost. -

Where's Russ? I made a MS-66 CAM 1965 SMS JFK!
Time for a nickel boy to do a little braggin' ... I dug through some mint sets I had not looked at in ages a few weeks ago and spotted what appeared to be a promising 1965 SMS JFK in a set I bought about 18 years ago. So, I submitted my first raw JFK hoping it would go cameo since '65s in CAM or DCAMS are relatively rare.… -
1965 SMS (need some advice Russ)
This thread comes after reading past threads about the 1965 SMS sets. I have several 1965 SMS sets and don't really know what the grading criteria is. I've looked at auction pics (Heritage and Teletrade). It is not evident to me , the difference between MS and cameo grades of many of these. Generally, I don't see the big… -
Re: POLL: Probably obvious, but do you get "The Rush"...
The rush of acquisition is a huge part of the hunt. Problem is that it doesn't last until the next target is spotted. Russ, NCNE -
