Here is a question for you:

how does your grading of 40 years ago compare to your opinion now?

I would say that my grading back then was unrealistic. Now, it is simply optimistic.

Of course, if a coin in the coin shop was marked as XF, then it was XF without question ... and I paid the price marked. I don't even remember what book I used for reference back then. I wish I had saved one of my reference books.

Nice collection of coins, keep it going .


@T-BOP I meant to get back to this comment. Actually, I have no desire to keep this going. I want to keep it as it is, and keep it separate from my adult collection. It is a snapshot in time of youth, innocence, another era. Another lifetime honestly. I feel like adding to it would spoil it.

Its been decades since I was in a coin shop. Do they still have those rotisserie style coin displays where you push a button to make the shelves rotate?
