    Six Mile Rick got a reaction from Mr.Bill347 for a journal entry, 2021 is the end of my 10 year run on selling.   
    Friends,
     I have been here for over 15 years. At one point 10 years ago I started buying graded coins from members and submitting many coins to NGC as well.My goal was to obtain as close to $100,000 in NGC value at no cost out of pocket. I did end up with a great set of dimes which I will be keeping as a momentum but the rest is going to Great Collections over the next few months.
     My dimes have $0 of cost (Rank #1 Clad NGC only) as I have sold so many dimes over the years that they actually floated costs on other invested coins.
     First off the chart will be all the Lincoln coins I have listed in my collection manager. I will send them in one month. NGC list value = $12,158. My cost to date on the group of 94 coins is $1,763 It took a lot of sales to get those costs so low and a good sale on those will bring my total cost to date down closer to $0 invested total.
     I will add to this journal over the next few months to let you know where I land.
    Enjoy Collecting!!!

    Six Mile Rick got a reaction from Ray, USMC for a journal entry, The close end of 2020   
    A different time for most of us. As I lost my wife a year ago I stop in once in a while to check up on all of you collectors.
    Collecting for me left my mind when my wife passed. I have started a few new small businesses to keep my mind busy and
    seem to have no extra time to indulge in bidding for coins to add to my sets. Taking a little time to check ranks
    on some sets this morning. Good Luck to those that have worked so hard on their collection for the awards this year.
    Happy Coin Collecting!!
