Thought it would be fun to see what other are buy, so I thought I would start a buy of the week thread. If you feel you bought something of to much value and think it might be risky posting don't. So post your buy of the week or coins you add to your collection can be mulitple items or just one. If you don't buy every week then post your monthly buys. you can either list it or post a picture. Here is mine I know the week is not over but spent my coin money for the week. 1st 2006 Pcgs ms69 frist strike American silver eagle(no no I didn't get it off TV). 2nd 2001 silver American eagle (9 more to go) 3rd 5 Mercury dimes for my G-VF set (4 more to go) bought 1918-P,1919-D,1927-D,1926-S,1927-D so there are mine notheing fansy but what I hope to post weekly since I go to the coin shop at least once a week. here is the picture of the dimes I bought I have put them in my album already so you will have to see them in the book would post a pic of my american sliver eagle but you all know what a BU eagle looks like Edited by djluster 01/14/2006 8:38 pm

Lately, I haven't been buying a lot, but in the last two weeks or so I have felt a strange attraction to Seated coins. Here are my latest: 1837 Half Dime, VG; 1853 arrows/rays half dollar, VF30; 1845 quarter, VF; 1853 arrows/rays quarter, VG. Nothing really special here (although the half dollar is a nice-looking one for the grade) - just more coins to sit in my collection. I was thinking of buying a whole bunch of crummy Seated coins to put in my junk silver box, but the better ones in the above group were more attractive to me than the junky ones, so I went for them instead. Maybe next time I'm in the mood, I'll go into the coin shop and buy all of the junky Seated coins they have. Not a big acquisition, but perhaps it will keep me satisfied for the time being. Heather

Well I received the Austalian 2002 Trimetallic (pure copper, silver and gold) CommonWealth Games commemorative. Limited to only 5,000 it was a great find here in the states. Also purchased a 1985 Netherlands gold ducat for my little guy's collection. My wife bought the rare Australian 2001 Centenary of Federation set but it won't be here for another 7 to 10 days! All in all a great coin week! Also had to buy another 2005 silver Chinese Panda in the event mine ends up in the Perpetual GiveAway Set!

Pictures everyone, we need pictures!!!  How about just quick scans  Filled 2 more tough spots in my 7070. Love the errors on this pretty little coin...   Lightly cleaned with a nice planchet error on the reverse. Some collectors might not like this error, but for me, it makes the coin unique...
