Now I am impressed.

Went to a coin auction last night and one the items for sale was a complete set of extremely worn Liberty nickels in an album. The auction house provides a list of items for sale and the nickel set was described as follows:

"Complete set of circulated Liberty nickels"

NOTE: 1913 IS MISSING !

Man, and I just knew this was going to be my chance.

I guess that the research stopped just slightly short of complete !

By the way,, this would encourage me to continue going to these peoples auctions !

If I had won that auction for all of $20, and it missed the 1913, I would've sued.

The set actually sold for $880 including a 10% buyers premium.
