Good By To All .. Leaving NGC and all my coins are going to Heritage Auctions !

All coins will be Auctioned from December 7-16 I finally gave up ! I had fun in the competition . But its time to pass the torch to someone else. Too many ppl playing games in here. The Registry is not what it used to be. At one time I was so proud to be apart of this family, But it changed so much and not for the better ! It is just a shell of what it was ! I have chatted with so many wonderful ppl in here and met so many awesome individuals, I even talked to people I never seen and chatted

Finally satisfied, I completely closed out my Mint State 1950 P,D,S Roosevelts with the best monsters

7 years in the making I do believe this is the first all STAR Roosevelt Mint State MS68 Full Torch P,D and S ever brought together. I have been collecting Roosevelt's since 2007.. Long struggles and sometimes just waiting to see what pops up. Even though I do believe Roosevelt's are one of the hardest series in the modern coins. High grade, plus finding the rare full torch is a challenge, among challenges. Here is the Rarity breakdown 1950-P MS68*FT POP 1 with none better. 1950-D MS68*F

This is ridiculous. Verify a certification # with a more security?

This is totally retarded ! Of course, due to heightened security at NGC all collectors are now required to type in an analog number and also another set of numbers to verify what the coin is on the holder when you go to verify NGC certification.. I really cant see why in the world you really need this.. OH by the way, that second small box, you cant the numbers because the numbers are too dark sometimes. This is becoming a pain. Next NGC will be slabbing a slab. This way you really know its re

I was right " I think this will be TELTRADES last year as an auction "

so many people doubted me ! On 1-14-13 I wrote an article about this will be Teletrades last year.. I few people agreed with me and a lot of negative comments about the facts ! Well Teletrades people will have to go to stacks and bowers now .. I guess I had to write this article to gloat a little ! To see old comments for this Journal entry, click here.

What else could be in this house ????? My mind is wondering !!!!

Abandoned for years over 40 years Hello everyone. I recently bought a new house, well,its new to me. I had been looking for a house that was bigger than 3 bedroom 1 bath.. Im sure you can see the problem. I was wanting something with a 2 car garage. Real estate is high here in south Louisiana. I have been looking for over a year now. I just happened to look through my computer and found a huge house that was a fixer upper. I was amazed when I pulled up in the drive way. The house sat on 5 lots

A Promise Kept .. R.I.P Todd Richard Peters !..You are now Number 1 !

Gone, but not Forgotten Nov. 8, 1960 - Nov. 20, 2012On 11-24-2012 I wrote a NGC journal about a great friend I never met. I really took it hard when I learned about his passing. He was one of those people that you call a friend, but never met. Hours of talking on the phone about coins and stories about life and family. I miss talking to my friend !!!!I made a promise to myself and everyone in here that I will put his birth year set to #1, which was the 1960 Mint set.I sat on the computer for ho

Update to my playboy pink mustang !

History just keeps getting better As a lot of collectors know in here, I sold a lot of my monster Mercury and extra Roosevelt dimes to obtain a one rare car. I have done a ton of homework and I found out that only 2 playboy pink mustang 1967 convertibles were built in the whole state of California special order color. The dealership that sold this car was in Pasadena,CA at Robert H Loud Ford. What makes this story more interesting is that, this dealership is only 30 miles from los angles,Which

1946 S Roosevelt NGC MS68*FT has been crossed to PCGS

Coming up on heritage I was scanning the heritage website and coming soon is a Roosevelt dime I didnt need it , but admired. It last sold at heritage for 1600.00 but now it may bring a serious amount of money. I have crossed a few coins from PCGS to NGC,, Now they are being crossed back..   I wonder if the population report is being accurately kept up?

The new registry advertisement

Does it get better or worse from here ? I noticed a change in the NGC registry. When you are looking at your sets of coins, there is a numismatic value area. Now next to that is a "SHOP EBAY " area. REALLY !!!! Someone must be getting paid a pretty penny to put that spot there. Why not "Shop Heritage ", they have better coins for the registry.. Why not just put a space that says " KEEP LOOOKING " Its kinda like when you want to see a video on the internet, and now you have to wait to

I think this will be TELTRADES last year as an auction

They are a last resort when you buy coins from them ! I have been dealing with teletrade for over 15 years and every single coin I bought from them, I will lose money when I sell any of them. Teletrade has made a decision that, they just crippled themselves and its their own fault. Lets face facts, teletrade is a last resort auction house. They really didn't know how to run their auction. If you seen a coin you really wanted and you call them, they couldn't tell you what a coins reserve w

Mercury dimes were Sold and My dream car is now finished

Trading the best coins for the best car 1!! For all of those who know me, I am a serious collector and a huge player in the registry. I buy the best of the best and it was time, my 5 monster mercury were sold at heritage. I have been given a once in a lifetime chance to buy the car I always wanted and it finally became available. It is the original 1967 Playboy pink convertible mustang. I know it may sound silly, but only 10 playboy pink convertibles were produced.It it not just a plain jane c

25th Anniversary Reverse Proof VS the true S mintmark

Both are the the 2nd Rarest but which one is the most collected I have been doing my homework since the making of the 25th Silver eagle Set. Every month I would chart out the number of perfect 70's available especially on ebay, because that is where the most of these coins are sold. Everything you may know about these 2 coins are completely backwards. Mintage in NGC perfect 70 are as follows Reverse Eagle is 18,668 S mintmark Eagle 20,004 I have been trying to figure which one is

Is the 2012 American Eagle San Francisco Two-Coin Silver Proof Set worth it ?????

The price is way out of line Starting tomorrow the U.S. Mint will the selling the first Reverse Proof and Regular proof Silver Eagle 2 coin set. The Price is 149.95. The set has no mintage limit for 1 month then, thats it. No more will be struck. With silver at 29.36 multiplied by 2 that amounts to 58.72 for silver value. The mint is making 91.23 per set it sells. How in the hell the mint complains about losing money on producing the penny and skull drags us with mark-ups like this. I usuall

PCGS in NGC registry

Not All coin are graders the same There is pluses and and minuses to this. I had plenty of PCGS coins that would not cross to NGC. PCGS does not see NGC as an equal,but NGC does and a few collectors in here have the same coin with PCGS and the same serial number.PCGS has plenty of PF70 grades in the 1970's and so far NGC has not found any.I currently own 577 certified coins in my registry with only 3 coins being PCGS. If PCGS would be fair across the board an let NGC in their registry, then t

2012 Goals.. Can I accomplish them?

Sitting back and trying to find the best in the world I really don't like buying any kind of low grade coins. I set my standards extremely high and do everything in my power to get a certain coin when it comes up for auction. I try to set high goals in my registry collection. This is what I plan to accomplish this year. I am ranked #92 in total registry points. Goal for this year is #75 I am #1 in the 1965- present clad roosevelt set and plan to keep that pace. I am ranked

BIG dissappointment for me with NGC registry awards

Worked hard and Overlooked I have be working hard on my coins for the last few years. I was #1 in 2007 for my Roosevelt dimes. Ngc changed the point score in 2008 and I couldnt financially recover in 2008.I kept pace with some of the best. In 2010 I was in 3rd place and Arthur Gowman and Nick Casio bought out the #1 and #2 spot and combined the the set. I Was put in #2 and I always kept up with the desctiptions and tried to make the best pictures. Countless hours of scanning to get the best pi

A small mildstone in my life with NGC

4 years in the making and getting serious with my coin collection. I started just like many collectors in here. I had the whitman book and went through hours of of a certain coins to find to correct years and mintmarks. It was fun and kept me busy. As I grew older in my teens I started to go to coin shows and I was happy to buy a wore out coin for a cheap. Most coins I bought then were fron $1.00 to $3.50. I thought at the time I was a great collector. In my 20's I got a little more serious. I

2011 SAE 25th anniversary mintage of 100,000 was fair in my opinion !

Rareity is also the key I know alot of collectors were frustrated with the overwhelming busy signals and the mint website crashing. You have to understand when thousands of ppl are trying to call at the same time, it will be luck of the draw! Same thing goes for the mint website. It took me hitting redial over and over for over 2 and a half hours straight before I got in. It was frustrating . I know the mintage may seem low to most ppl, but shouldnt there be a few rare coins to make the hobby

25th anniversary SOLD OUT !!! Less than 6 hours !!!!!

It was hell !!! I got in about noon with 5 ppl constantly calling for me. I will get my 5 sets. Even the mint website couldnt handle the volume. The price is now seriously climbing on ebay. I hope eveyone can get a set, but that will be impossible. I cant wait to see what grades I get. To see old comments for this Journal entry, click here. New comments can be added below.

25th Anniversary Silver eagle set to be released ! NGC and others I need your feedback !

Special label or not? Back in 2006 the U.S mint released the 3 coin set of the 20th anniversary set. NGC had a special Label for those coins. The catch to get those special labels were to have them unopened from the mint and put them in another box and send them to NGC. NGC members had to officially open the box from the U.S. Mint and they were all designated as the 20th anniversary. If the Mint box was opened and then sent to NGC, the only coin that could get the special designation was the R

1st naturally toned 5oz yellowstone.. A must see

I still cant believe my eyes In a recent journal, I explained how to turn a gun safe in coin safe. With over 500 certified coins , junk silver rounds, Toned silver coins, and Solid oak shelves and copper pennies. I really dont know how it happened. I originally bought a bullion version of the 5 oz America The Beautiful when it first came out. I put the on the top shelf inside my safe and closed it up. I opened my safe periodocially to put coins I won from an auction in my NGC boxes and Closed
