Recently while searching rolls at a local dealer, found an unopened roll of what I'm pretty sure are "bugtails" , all BU !

My question is : I understand ICCS wont designate these as "bugtail" . Does anyone know if cccs does?

Tks Vance

I sent 10 off to cccs( 3 looked 64+, crossing fingers).

Now get this>>>>I went back to the dealer, bought his last roll of '57s and ...BAM, 35 BU bugtails and 5 normals types!


That really stoked the fires!

Welcome to the forum "Vance the bugtail king !"

When you get to 250 posts I hope I can buy one from you. I have been putting together a nice set of Canadian nickels.
Nice stroke of luck there!

Well I like "The Bugtail King"! I may make a few available on ebay when they return safe and sound from CCCS.

flooding the market with bu coins of something scarce, won't that lower the price?

I'm curious, too! This was probably the first thread I read on CCF.
