I'm always looking but I'm always broke haha GR58. The only way I can afford either one at this point is if they were holed and going for spot haha. I borrowed my fiancee's pocket piece tonight. They had the same wear originally and placed them in our wallets at the same time. This is the difference between blue collar and white collar work lol. Though I also cheated and reused a flip for mine.

If your ever ready let me know, I could list them in buy, sell trade section.
But they might go quick.

Sometimes I pick coins up cheap and don't mint pass them on at a good
price. I picked up three U.S. Marshal UNC coins ..no box. One has a
cracked air tite that I would sell for $25. Most times I have or can find
Constitution's for $15 ....

Not really trying to sell stuff ... I like to stack silver.

But like reading about you pocket piece journey.

I will keep it in mind. It's super tempting but I shouldn't at the moment. I'm not selling enough stuff on ebay this month. It's been miserable and I'm more then $200 under my average this month. It happens when you sell toys mostly :(.

The big thing right now I'm looking for is halves to add to my pockets. I'm looking for commemorative modern halves clad or maybe even silver Washington. I kinda want two so I can sandwich my ASE between. I officially hit AU on it now haha. Can definitly see wear on the high points.

Just let me know if your are ever interested.

The commemorative half idea sounds good too.
There are two different 90% silver commemorative half dollars.
1982 Washington and 1992 Bill of rights. Those might be good
companions for your pocket ASE.

I showed my sister my coin for her daughter today and she told me I probally should be looking for a 2016 to wear in too lol. Apparently will I be a uncle again. They will be 20 months apart but still super early. I will have to look at the commendatives issues this year and decide what way to go. Mark Twain would be tempting for a boy.

It's complicated. Fiancee is a early term I guess but it's easier to be politically and gender neutral using it. We have talked heavily about it but haven't committed yet. We wanted to get a little more stable first and there will be family issues when it happen that will put Romeo and Juliet to shame haha. Anyways in mixed company where no one knows me personally it's easier to say that.

I'm young but not a super YN. I do however have a 11 yo brother into coins and likes this website and when he has questions I supervise him with my account haha. So I can see why you would think that. My parents are super strict on his internet usage so this is the only way he can take part without breaking their rules haha. However 90% it's only me posting.

Young coin collector pretty much. It's late and I can't spell the n word easily :) too sleepy. Usually under 18. I'm in my 20's so don't quite fit there anymore though I started at 9.
