I Don't Get It

Just wow! I actually got some Denver rolls and had some partial letterings and threw them back into the spending bunch. Time to go to the bank, pick up some rolls and fnd a way to submit to PCGS

Someone's going to get messed up. Yep, you have to ask "why" and then "who cares"? Fools are soon parted with their money. Oh well.

We often speak of the knowledge necessary to be a successful coin collector and yet 75% of that knowledge may be nothing more than a single sentence: Don't buy a coin on the secondary that's less than 10 years old.

After 10 years the *construct* has either collapsed or in some very rare instances, formed a solid and real base around it. This was the case of the '55 DDO1 Lincoln. A coin that was so much a construct no one even wanted one until Jim Ruddy started selling them for 25cents. No one even cared enough about it to report it's existence until 1960. But it has a solid collector base today which is more than can be said for 95% of the past constructs used to hype coins.
