My 250th post.....I have done my level best to make every one of them "quality posts", though with this being my 250th it seems a bit self serving to call this my 250th quality post. I guess I will have to post one more before I can call myself "arrived" lol. Thanks to everyone for making this journey fun, informative, profitable, and addictive. I am looking forward to my next 250 :-)

Moderators, if I can make one plea...please leave this post here as the lion share of my postings are made here and I want to share this moment with my friends :-)

Think of it as a car. Take one to a junk yard and get $100. Go back and try to buy all the parts and find your car is now worth thousands.
Or your paying for someone to hire people to open them and repact each coin separately. Those hired people are making $50/hour.
Rest in Peace

You make a good point, just carl. By the way, do you know how I can get one of those jobs? LOL

I had another thought: not all proofs are created equal. I suppose that the best of the best get plucked from the packages and command a higher price.
