The coins I purchased in October

October was a special month for me. I finished my collection of MS SAEs! I devoted alot of attention to these coins over the last 8 months and was very satisfied when I got the last coin of this series. All I have to do is keep up with the yearly additions when they are available from the Mint.

These were the last of the SAEs that I bought in October:

1992 MS-69

1996 MS-69

2000 Millennium MS-69

The Millennium was the last one I received and I believe I got it at a good price...$47 off of Ebay.

I also picked up 3 modern commemoratives:

1994 $1 World Cup ungraded

1994 $1 POW Museum PF-69UC

1995 $1 Olympics Cycling PF-69UC

These are most likely the last of my purchases for the rest of the year. The money I usually spend on coins are going for Christmas presents. Ipods for Everyone!!

Looking at my collections, I believe I will start keeping an eye out for the Proof SAEs that will finish that one up. I only need 5 of those but I will only be able to get 4 of them. The 1995 W is way out out of my price range. But the 1993 P is very attractive at around $100. I will most likely get the last few ungraded hoping to get lucky and have one score PF70UC.

Thanks for taking the time to read my journal and glancing at my registry
