Those are the kind of coins when I see advertised I turn the other way. Guess I'm just to cheap. If and when you get one post a photo.

I'm still debating if I want one of those St. Gaudens reproduction or save up and get a real 1907 high relief.

But seriously, it IS hard to make decisions financially on what one "ought" to do with coin purchasing. Keeping a "budget" in check with life and family and responsibility, versus, a deep passion/love/addiction to coins.......that isn't easy for everyone to balance and one has to be willing to do without certain coins, possibly for a lifetime, in order to keep that "balance".
Best advice:.......buy smart......arm yourself with as much knowledge as you can, be picky, and stick to what's affordable to you without sacrificing the more important things in life.

I currently Eaglefoot the 1 and 2 franc 1919! All 7 of them in the album were either worn or damaged. I want better ones!  I can use "Eaglefoot" as a verb, right?

Quote: I can use "Eaglefoot" as a verb, right? Absolutely! It is a versatile word... As a verb... I eaglefoot the Eisenhower dollar. As an adjective... I have many eaglefoot coins in my collection. As a noun... I only collect eaglefoots.
