What a find! Can I ask what did you pay for it all? It looks like only the pricier stuff is missing. Plus, in the future, you'll have tons of fun upgrading material.
The items you'd want to definitely think about piecing out for a few extra bucks are any seated material, 2¢, and 3-cent pieces. Can you get individual photos/scans of those pieces...I'd love to see 'em. However, you'll want to replace them with even better pieces!
Congratulations on your pick up!

I really really wanna keep all of these however I mainly bought it as an investment to piece this collection out, mainly by having them graded and sold on here or ebay. Let me know your thoughts
The type set is very nice but why would you have them graded. |

I agree with the above question....none of the material in there seems substantial enough to justify grading fees and entombing them. If you want to sell them, sell the stuff raw, and get some help with determining grades if you're new at doing it. It's a total waste of money to slab that stuff.

Good to know. Tis why I asked. I was always under the impression that if sold right you could increase the premium and overall profit that could justify paying to have it graded. I am also not that good at spotting cleaning so I'll have all of these in the Grading section eventually.

There maybe a piece or two that would be worth the expense ,,it is too soon to tell for sure !!
Looking forward to the real pictures of the coins !!

I agree that it is not cost effective to have them holdered before selling. That is a great pick up and a nice head start if you choose to pursue a and complete the 7070.

Congratulations on a great find, you have a heck of a start on filling that bad boy. Looking forward to seeing some of these coins on the grading forum, & maybe in the for sale section.....hint,hint.

Which ones are you considering selling? If possible, unless you really feel that the coin merits it, put a price on them and sell them here. It's a lot less hassle and you'll probably make as much if not more here.

I haven't decided yet. I did a quick grade/price markup and it's around $830. However my grades may be high/low. I wanted to buy it to sell it to make some money while I don't have a job. But I think I might keep it and if need be I can easily part with most of it on here or ebay. If I do decide to sell I will always offer here first. I need to try and retake some detailed pictures like I did for the Buffalo 1913 Type II. |

Awesome grace. I keep saying I'm going to get a 7070 but I keep putting it off. The time has to come soon.
