I think it's a thrill at any age. I absolutely love the feeling and I'm in my twenties!

Nice score, I hope that they pack them well.
Rest in Peace

Idle point:

It's really inadvisable to mention the specific location and nature of a potential big score before you have the coins in-hand. Wouldn't be the first time a seller has mysteriously "lost" the coins before shipment....

From the pictures I suspect they will not be gradable. Well not without being detail graded.

I to suspect they might be ungradable coins, but one never knows until they are in hand.

Coins in hand. Thoughts on cleaning requested. I see no telltale hairlines that would indicate cleaning. There is some mint luster on three of them and all show signs of wear on high points. Problem is, I have nothing with which to compare them since they are not included in our standard references. Thoughts? Gradeable? PG

And their final resting place for the forseeable future. Forget about grade/no grade. They have a new home. PG

And a parenthetical comment - Sharing the joy of discovery is not bragging, rather it's conveying an emotion at a point in time with others. PG
