I have a Reiver Half Dollar too! Regarding pedigree, I have purchased a couple coins from the Newman or Col. Green collection at a premium but they were perfectly original, choice coins and I don't regret getting them. They also came with manila envelope with their handwriting on them that I consider a bonus.

So all of the naysayers wouldn't pony up a little more if that XF Franklin came from the Old Man's Hoard? Come on!

I have a couple notes with a pedigree, but that wasn't a factor for me. Actually I did get a Hawaiian silver certificate from the collection of a Japanese American who was in an internment camp, which adds historical value. But generally, the fact that a coin or something was owned by a famous collector doesn't in itself add any value for me.

Who appoints a person a famous collector. How does one become considered prestigious enough to get such a honor. Is it self appointed, does your collection have to surpass a certain value.

Do I have to become a CCF big supporter.
