Just wow!
I'm not so impressed by the '73-D and '74-D and I'd love to see the '76 tI but every coin is virtually unimprovable.
I've got a better '74-D and I wager nicer '73-D's exist but the '76 tI is the real stopper for this set.

Is it possible that we block "J-buck" from seeing this... before he does something like rob a bank..?

I don't know. 170k seems pretty cheap to me to transform the 1970's from inflation, war, and disco into some kind of golden age. Sure it was what it was and it wasn't very pretty but anyone looking at these coins can hardly help but be affected. The collector has taken a boring design of a bald president and turned it into something heroic on many levels. In some ways he has reminded us that there really were great things from that era.
You sure can't do that with an 1877 cent or a BU collection of bust half dollars.

I hope Jbuck's just busy at work right now and not trying to get Mrs. Buck to take out a second mortgage  |

For all we know jbuck may have a collection just as nice or maybe better. As he isn't "In to" slabs, except with a dremal, you just never know  Edited by trout1105

As listed, this averages to $6,538.46 per coin... pardon my ignorance on the series, but how overpriced is this? How many of these 26 would fetch that if sold singly?
