jdbarrick - Might go to Hallenbeck's today. Kind of hit or miss at any coin store now, as most are bullion dealers at the moment. WHICH, cannot blame them....need to make money however you can.
We are on the easterly side of the Springs - Powers and Woodmen.
Saks is closed this weekend. Made a small purchase at Colorado Coin Galleries. ...and then a couple of pawn shops.

acloco, my family lives near woodmen and rockrimmon; small world. I think Hallenbeck will blow your socks off. They have an incredible spread.... and I trust them. Hope you get to check it out. Enjoy CO!

jdbarrick - haha...yes...very small world. I have been to Hallenbeck's twice before. First time, a treasure trove of red UNC wheats that were very favorably priced. Second time, not a nice, red, UNC Lincoln in the store. I must have hit the timing just right. Both times that I was there, five people were working. All five were busy buying. When one would walk by, I could request to see whatever I pleased. They had no problem letting me paw through a tray of $100 to $1500 raw & slabbed coins. I kind of got the nod, that they knew I was a collector, and not going to pocket anything. So, I stocked up on supplies on that visit. No luck on going this time...as the girls went shopping today. Maybe next time. :)
