The next round is normally a long series of individual single response replies with just a $ guess and no commentary about the prior coin. There is no knowledge transfer here - and thats not the CCF mission An idea that I have been considering for a while is delaying the next round start 24 hours to give time for questions and commentary for the previous round. What do you all think? |

I missed the last round because of NO internet  I agree it would be nice to read a bit on the coin/coins that we just bid on. |

I'd be interested in hearing more about the coins that seem to have been purchased for higher/lower than market value. Were they purchased raw or slabbed, was the coin slabbed after purchase, was it a cherry picked variety, etc. Just seems like there's a backstory.

$525.00 for this round.
And I really like the idea of some back story or knowledge about the coins we're guessing on.

Great! I am going to start the delay with the end of this round. I will not be deducting points though. I am thankful for all the contributors and could not do this without their coins and images!  |

So are we going 8 days from here on? Negative. Rounds will start on Thursday, end on Wednesday. No way I can do an eight day round when I am gone 90% of the weekends.  Still gives you more time to post guesses than when we did two rounds a week way back when. |

What was the NGC grade of that CBH? NGC Has this one at AU-55. It's an O-108a (noted on the holder) and is considered a "top pop" according to them, but I'm not naive enough to believe that, I'm sure there's higher graded ones, just not noted as an O-108a.  |

Good call jbuck and I'm hopeful that the breathing space between rounds will encourage some level of discussion about the coins. |
