I am not sure where to post this but it's about buying different types of coins. Just want to know what you think of the coins I bought.

*types*

1979-S Gem Brilliant PROOF Deep Cameo Susan B. Anthony

2005-S BISON Jefferson nickel GEM PROOF

2004 S Gem Proof Deep Cameo Jefferson nickel

2004 S Gem Proof Deep Cameo Jefferson nickel

*I have the ocean view nickel proof*

As you see,they are proofs. I only bought the SBA dollar because someone on the forum posted a photo of one and I kind of wanted it, lol. I bought all these from ebay and don't have them in my hands yet. I am planning on buying more proofs but do you guys got any idea of my next coin to buy? I like the proofs and high-graded.

I was thinking of buying this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1940-NGC-MS...em53f2e73700

Also, I was thinking about buying a 1/10 ounce American gold eagle.

I am winning it now but I know the price will change.

Coin World magazine has this at 225, so I wouldn't pay more than that. The seller makes me nervous, very new and usually sells jewelry.

That's the same thing I thought about the seller.

Perhaps, thanks!

Just one more question, what about this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/15098282898....m1426.l2649

What do they sell for? I never saw this kind of proof until a few days ago. I only know the basic proof sells for but not the proof-70.

Wish he had pics of both sides. Other than that, the coin is listed at 27 for the PF 69DC, not sure if the ultra cameo makes a difference. I don't know that much about the newer nickels so maybe someone else can weigh in. But hey,if you like it, get it.

If I were you, I wouldn't go any higher on the gold coin. You are already bidding $2010.00 per ounce when spot is $1660.00
I don't think there is $350.00 in added value to that coin.

I lost the gold coin bid. Went for 220. I would had to pay tax if I wanted to win it.

But does anyone think this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/20088810842....m1426.l2649 Buffalo nickel is worth bidding on? I lost the bid but might try 20 on it. Should I? I asked in my wanted thread if anyone got a 1926s buffalo for sale but no luck. I want just a basic grade one.

Id probably try and wait and find something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/1926-S-Buff...047675.l2557. Its a little more expensive but much better detail for a somewhat comparable price, since youll be spending about 20 on the other one with shipping if no one else bids. .

Haha! I hurt my thumps trying to push some in. I had to use my axe that has a hammer on the other side if it. I put one of the cardboard holder over the coin then hit it a few times. After that it was down in nice and flat.

So what you said before I should wait? When I posted my reply your post only said:
"Id probably try and wait and find something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/1926-S-Buff...047675.l2557. Its a little more expensive but"

I clicked the link and saw the buffalo sale has ended though. I have like 70 dollars let to spend for coins. Went down from 300....

I would pass on the one you had shown personally. I checked to see the active listings for that date and didnt find anything that was close to the price range you had but that one had sold not to long ago. I just wanted to show that as an example of what id be on the look out for after seeing that those come up from time to time.

For the 70 are you trying to get a few coins with that or 1 nicer one or just kind of pick up things as you see you like them?

I was going to buy the buffalo then some different other kinds of coins. I would spend about 50 for the 1926s. It don't really matter. I just want to fill my folder fast. I hate waiting,lol.

Yep, I won't get the 1937-D 3 leg though. That's the one that hurts the most. I bought a ps3 for 500.00 That could of been the 3 leg buffalo! But we can't go back in time. Why so many views and no one else post anything?
