All my key date coins are out for grading at ANACS so I'll have to post them in a few weeks when they come back. Welcome to Coin Community, qktbird. If these aren't your "keys," I can't wait to see what you consider "key."  |

Thanks for the reply carl. Wish I was a millionair but I'm not even a thousandair...LOL
All my spare money goes into my coin collection. I keep the bare minimum in the savings because I have a long way to go before or if I can ever retire. I just think investing in coins will pay off more in 30 years or so than putting it in the bank. Plus if I put it in the bank I might spend it on silly stuff I don't really need. If I buy coins or silver, I cant just spend that money unless I sell them. LOL

SuperDave: Well, all my key date coins aren't in the high grades like the ones I posted here. Most are good to fine condition because I bought most of them a few years ago when I first started collecting again. Some of the coins I have out for grading are my 1921 & 1921 D Mercury dimes, 1932 D & S Washington quarters, 1931 S lincon cent, 1914 & 1915 Barber halves as well as a bust dime and bust halves from my type collection. I sent out 12 coins but those are all I remember right now. I just picked out the key dates from my sets and others from my type set that I really liked. I'll post pics of them all when I get them back. |

Just about everyone of them would look great in my 7070! What an incredible "set o' slabs". Edited by oih82w8

If some of these are investment vehicles for you, I urge you to hold for the short term but do not be afraid to convert. Once the economy is obviously changed to an upswing, lag the tide a little bit to allow the true collectors to regain confidence that they're no longer competing with metals speculators, and then liquidate through a reputable auction house and throw it into small- and mid-cap index funds. Or, just hold them, because you're making smart and recession-proof choices of coins I'd love to own. They will always be on a rising tide, because they're what people want. It's a pleasure to welcome you here, and I hope you're willing to share your thought processes with others in our forum. |
