GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 02/18/2019 3:28 pm Here's one: Cherrypicked a 1864 IHC Labeled As No L because "Band Not Legible" I picked it by the pointed bust. Payed $5, sold for $40. Keep your eyes open! Report this Post to the Staff

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7955 Posts	Posted 03/30/2019 10:13 pm Does it count as a "score" if you didn't know it was a score until more than 15 years later? Around 2000 I bought the Polish coin shown below at a western European auction house for less than 100 euro. In the intervening 15 years, this type has been cataloged in more detail, and this example turns out to be a rather scarce variety for the date/mint. The last auction sale I could find was in 2016, for about $700 before buyer's premium (and it was an example with less eye appeal): https://wcn.pl/archive/124691?q=pol...+1581&page=2 Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74584 Posts	Posted 04/12/2019 10:19 pm Very recently, I found 1972 LMC DDO. I thought it was 1DO-007, but it turned out to be 1DO-002! http://goccf.com/t/344877 Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 04/12/2019 10:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff
GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 04/12/2019 10:45 pm I saw! I'm quite jelous, that's one I've been chasing for a long time now. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74584 Posts	Posted 04/13/2019 12:00 am GrapeCollects, that's funny, because I was looking for that one too! Just got lucky on that one. Probably won't find another one. Persistent and endless searching does/will pay off eventually. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 04/13/2019 12:03 am Report this Post to the Staff
