They are both very impressive pieces. Too bad you couldn't get the Ike.

I'll get the Ike eventually. The dealer had a very impressive assortment of coins, but I showed him a few pictures on my phone of some items I've been thinking of liquidating and his eyes lit up a little. He had 3 1856 flying eagles on his table so getting his attention made me feel a little proud.

Impressive. The woody is nice, but that red beauty is awesome.

Thanks. I really wish I had taken more cash with me because there was a 1914D in MS65RD. It was marked at $16,000 but I'm sure there was some wiggle room in that price.

I'm jealous not 1 but 2 S-VDB's in one day. I've been collecting for over 50 years and I still don't have one.  |

Beautiful coins, love the 'woodie'. I actually was walking around the floor with it for the last hour of the show debating if I should buy it or not. The dealer was packing up and I threw out an offer and he accepted, so now it's mine. I'm thinking about getting it reslabbed PCGS or just flip it.  |

Yes, as others have said, those are some serious consolation prizes, and one of the "woodiest" S-VDB's I have seen. Thanks for the last picture; I was going to ask if you minded telling how that one graded. I'm always curious to see how the grading services evaluate woodies. I am far from a grading expert, but I think a reasonable person could argue that it's undergraded by a point or two.
