Quote: Nice pick up! Are you going to go the album/binder route on these, or slab boxes in terms of display/storage? I'm going to keep them in a safe as I drool too much when I look at them

 all the more reason to have them displayed nicely! I have all mine in various binders with the lighthouse slab pages. All the buffs barely fit in a 5" binder. Does take up a good amount of real estate in my safe though , but I felt it the easiest for viewing access. Might be kind of difficult given the number of IHC's.

Hi all, Haven't been on here for over a month. Well I got my coins back from Anacs, so time to post  You can read all about the Anacs adventure here: http://goccf.com/t/378763But you don't care about the slabbing adventures, you care about the coins? So lets start. First up is an 1860 Point Bust, yes I know its details but its a pretty coin and I would buy it again. I think this one is undergraded, I would state AU50. But never the less, in eye appeal I really like and it makes a nice addition to my collection.

An 1899 IHC, this one was funny as after I got it, I found one on ebay for $30, so now I have 2, both same grade. I like IHC, one can't have too many IHC.

The 1889 was a bargain raw, so I picked it up, it graded AU 55, I was thinking AU58/MS62. But still a nice coin.

The 1865 came back higher graded. I was thinking AU 50, AU58 was a nice grade. Value also shot up due to the grade.

The 1880 I knew had damage, I saw the mark right at 12. I went back and forth and whether I should send it in and in the end decided to send it in as it had nice visual appeal. So the details grade was expected, what I learned is that if I think it will details, then it will. If I find a nice priced one, I'll break this one out and put it in the album.
