Re: 1872 10 piece proof set (All coins now numeric graded slabs, grades on last page)
Well I got the coins, so lets talk. First I will tell you what I paid $5000 trade in low grade 90%, some pucks, some early gold and a few pieces of currency then $3000 cash and obviously my time and gas.

I just looked at my pictures again and boy they suck. I did not ask for true views, but maybe I'll have them imaged when I get them back. I can now see why you think the minor coins are not proof. All photos where taking in capital plastics holder under natural lighting no extra sources just the rays of the sun shining… -
