This one was in a dealer's junk bin in London. I think I paid 5p for it about 20 years ago!

This is off topic so I'll be short. About 2 yrs. ago my father in law passed away, and left my wife with a lot of bullion and a couple of numismatic grade coins. In researching the value if things I got hooked. You might say grabbed! So I have been selling some bullion and buying a lot of coins.

Nothings off topic, its coins  okay, so in the past 24 months you've assembled the finest known 7070 in the registry. Interesting to say the least. Its quite nice and some of the coins are absolutely to be marveled at. Thanks for sharing.

The PCGS "modified" 7070 is a new set started in November 2015. It was fortunate that I was already assembling a PCGS exclusive 7070 set. I was 85% there then, and rushed to fill modern holes. In fact I was really working on a 1883 mint set and a circulated dime set before November.
