    A Golden Opportuity for those collectors who collect what I have been doing for over 20 years.
    I will try to make this as short as I can , that wont be easy though, and I dont even know if I am doing this right, I am a laryngectomee, and cannot speak due to agent orange in Vietnam, a lot of you now have probably met me or seen me at the shows or seen some of my coins , or dealt with me on ebay or any of the auctions, anyway to look up my sets in the Registry just look up Gilbie and you will see my sets, except for the Morgans which I have sold as a group, privately, everything else is for sale , I had a family medical emergency and our niece finally found a kidney match and our family had to come up with over a 100K in like a 10 day period to be eligible. So I had to sell my hobby of 20 years which was the fastest way for me to get an advance, the people from Teletrade were kind enough to give me a very generous advance and now my niece has a new kidney, and the prognosis is excellent, all of my sets are either First by theirself like all of you trying to find them elusive Americal the Beautiful quarter business strikes with pops of one two or three total, they are in my set at least three of them are, and the only MS69 that has ever been produced to date in this series I have this could be according to people who have been in this business many a year one of the rarest coins to ever be minted, gives you something to think about, their are also some where the pop is 2 and I have them both, so here is the chance for you all to obtain the top registry set and no one will ever be able to catch you, but I have everything from some cents to the third ranked Washington Proof quarter collection in the country, with the keys a complete set of First Spouse Coins in PF and MS70 that now since they cut all the mintages are now hot as firecrackers and are impossible to find the backdates. I also almost have the complete ASE Set In PF70 with the keys except the 95W, and some people are saying it is getting harder to find the 93 and 94 now. which I have. Teletrade will be auctioning these coins and more starting this Sunday, May 1st, and I know the following Sunday, May 8th, another portion, but here is an opportunity to pick up some very difficult coins at a very reasonable price, believe me, all of you who have dealt me know how fair I am and always have been. If you have any questions you may contact me here I assume, although I really dont know how that works or my email address is gray_g1@comcast.net I thank you for taking the time to read this and for those of you I have not had the priviledge of meeting I wish I would of had the chance to do so, as I have only met good people in this hobby.

    An update on my niece and how part 1 of the sale went
    Hello all collectors, anyone who read my first Journal I thank you, if you like you can look it up , was only about 2 weeks ago and the suject was My first journal and probably my last, well a lot of you must of read it, because I know I have had to move a lot of my coins out of my registry sets to others in this registry, and that is what this is about, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I was the one who has the niece who needed a kidney transplant and our family had to raise over 100K in 10 days, which was very difficult, and we had to borrow most of it, my portion was to sell my entire 20 year coin collection, which was my love and only hobby. It was really an easy decision though when it comes to coins and human life. Anyway I just wanted to remind you all that Part 2 of my sets will be on teletrade this Sunday May 8th, and Part 3 on May 11th. My #1 ranked America the Beautiful or some call them National Park Quarters in Mint state goes off this Sunday. It is also the highest graded set in the world according to NGC and PCGS their are 2 coins in that set that their are only one of to this date and their are others with a pop of 2 and both of them are in my set , and of course all of the others take a good look if you got a little money put away, you can buy the #1 ranked set and because of the coins that I already have if you keep it current no one will ever have a higher graded set, and at programs end it will be worth a fortune, just remember how many of us fell asleep on the 99Statehood quarter set, and now you cant get them first year coins unless you rob someone. also, You all bought up most of the First Spouse PF70 Gold coins last week, and this Sunday I am running matching coin in MS70 and I can see why now, makes a lot more sense than paying the same or more than a Eagle, and they both are IRA eligible, but see once the mint just slice production and stopped producing some of them without warning, now look how hard they are to find, a complete set of them will be worth a pretty penny in about 5 more years, not even counting the gold value. I also have a nice 1957 top pop nickel and a few nice quarters, so again I am really glad that I could fill a lot of your holes in some of your sets, its like keeping it in the family. And again I have tried and tried and tried to find a way to log into that collectors society portion of this registry and finally gave up so if someone out their could forward this into the announcements or whatever modes you use to make sure that everyone has an opportunity to read this I would really appreciate it. See I am a laryngectomee, so I cant speak because of agent orange in Vietnam, so I just cant pick up the phone and ask. And my niece wants to thank all of you who helped her get a new kidney, she is doing great. If anyone needs to reach me just pull up Gilbie and ask away, or just look at the sets. I thank you and GOD Bless You All! My email is gray_g1@comcast.net if you would need that.

    Your chance to fill in them missing coin slots!
    Hello everybody and thank you again, so much for your purchases from Sundays Teletrade auction, You all filled a lot of your slots and my niece who has her new kidney and I really appreciate it, Part 3 of the sale from my sets will be this Wednesday May 11th, and this one probable is the best one as far as prices go and I have some coins you all are looking for, their are some really nice Proof Washington guarters, MS and Proof 70 Silver Eagles and a few of your key dates you need are in their, some Mint State and Proof 70 First Spouse Gold Coins that I am letting go for less than you can get them at the mint raw, but I am trying to finish that set up and they are beautiful, so if you are gone to buy some gold get the 4 nines kind in a coin instead of the bullion, you will come out way ahead in the end. I am basically giving away the 1999 Silver Statehood quarter set with all 5 quarters and yes including Delaware, plus an entire set of the clads 1999-2009, and them Washington Proof quarters are early cams and ultra cams, every one of these coins I handpicked over the last 21 years, so look at everything, I even put my 2009S Lincoln 4 piece cent set in PF70 in their so take advantage of the prices, please check them out against anywhere else, I priced all of these to sell, so that I can pay my prommisory note back. Again I thank you and hope I can sell you one of my coins Wednesday on Teletrade. Gilbie, my email is gray_g1@comcast.net if anyone has any questions. Thank you and GOD Bless You!

    Over 300 coins have been won by you guy in the registy
    Hi Great People, and thank you , thank you, and my niece says the same thing her and her new kidney are doing great, I am coming to the end of my consignment with teletrade which lasts for 5 sessions under this new program they have, and they have been really great, but you folks in the registry are the real heros here , you all have bought over 300 coins for your sets that were in mine, that is incredible, it says two things, you all know nice coins, and my 21 years of collecting was not in vain, and I must of had some pretty nice coins, this is just a reminder tomorrow night is Part 4 and I have listed my complete America the Beautiful quarter set, which has been ranked #1 and still is I put this set together in hopes of passing it on to one of my grandkids, but when our family needed the money and I had only my coins then I had no choice but to get the advance and then consign my coins, but take a good look at this set their are 3 or 4 coins where the total top pop is only one coins and I have one of them, and 3 or 4 others the same way, so for someone who is gone to be around to complete the series a younger fellow, I am 77 years old, can you imagine what this would be worth at the end if they just kept it current. I have already spend the big dollars, this would be a great buy for someone especially if they had the money to buy the complete set, and it really is not that expensive except for the few keys just like all sets, and believe me I have it price for less than what I paid , just look on ebay or any of the modern coin sites. I am giving it away, but I have to get this finished up, their are also the two keys to the American Silver Eagle series in their the 93 and 94 and I got them way below what they go for, a nice nickel thats a gift and a few quarters. also 4 First Spouse Coins in mS70 for melt. Take advantage of these deals, they dont come around often, anyway thank you again so much for your help. Gilbie

    Just a thank you!`

    By Gilbie,

    What this group is all about
    Hello Malcolm, I have never met you in my life, and you took the time to send me a message to say thank you and you appreciate my comments. I tell people all the time they should join the registry, that just reading the journals and hearing what people share with each other makes the membership worth while, and I mean that, I also appreciate you wishing me good luck on my teletrade sales this evening, but I think American Idol took precedence as it was a rather dull sale for everyone, but I have two more shots at it ,again next Wednesday I will have some more nice coins for all you registry experts, and I will tell you ahead of time check my prices, you cant beat them, but I must move the remaining coins which are nice coins, handpicked and a lot of key dates and top pops still left. Tonight was an example I has for MS70 First Spouse Coins listed for melt, now slabbed 70's in four 9999 Gold , it just dont get any better, and that is just one example their were 3 coins in their with a population of one, yes one. I am sure someon will pick these off, I wish I was about 40 years younger and had a little money, I would do things a lot differently now that I see where the hobby has went. Although I have no complaints, I have enjoyed the hunt and especially the people you meet at the shows and shops and auctions. So I just had to say I appreciate anyone who takes a couple minutes to be nice. Gilbie

    Check these prices against any guide, ebay, or book
    Hello collecting brothers, and I truly mean that, I have never meant a better bunch of people, this is Gilbie you all helped my niece get her new kidney and she is doing great, well this is my final consignment of the part of my registry through teletrade, and all I ask you to do is look at Teletrades auction this Wednesday from 3 to 10 EST.,May 25th, If you are interested or collect Proof Washington quarters , American Silver Eagles and I am talking the key dates, 93 and 94 and others ,all handpicked coins over the last 21 years, nothing by PQ coins, if you been trying to finish off your Silver State quarter collection and need the 99 set, check the price on that whole set it is less than you would pay for the Delaware buy itself, also the 99 clad set and a few others, and now that everybody and their brother is trying to find the First Spouse Coins that we all overlooked and now the price of the set has doubled, well I took the ones I have left and are less than melt. So I will let you guys go at each other for these coins but you cant lose, their is not one coin in the entire remaining lot that is not under what the coin is wholesale for. But when you had to give up your coins for your family its no sense in trying to start again when your as old as me, but you young guys or any of your looking for some nice coins to fill or finish off some of your sets. This is your chance, so all I say is take a look see they only let you run your consignment 3 times and this is the third time on this one so its now or never. Its my way of saying thank you for all of the fun and friendship, I have had over the years. I hope to hear from you on Wednesday and be transferring a lot of my coins to your registry. Gilbie

    Just a few more great buys if you pay attention!
    Hello collector brothers and sisters, for those of you who have not ready any of my 6 journals including this my last one as that is all that teletrade allows I am told is this one. First being a Disabled Veteran myself I know how much tomorrow means to this country and to all of those who live in it, so congratulations and thank you to you all, an update on my niece with her new kidney, she is doing great so thank you all again for your purchases. You all just about wiped me out on the last wednesday auction but I said I still had a couple of good ones at prices youll never see again, please check if you dont believe me , but by now I think you know I am a pretty honest person. Anyway in this teletrade sale tomorrow their is a real nice nickel for half price lot 1116 and a very nice 1981D quarter lot#1312 again for half price, and the rest of the items are give aways till get to the America the Beautiful Series, that is the #1 NGC Registry series listed in this auction from lots 1619 till 1640 are what I have left in my registry as you can see I have all of the keys and I mean the hard keys such as lots 1620,1621,1624 their are only one of each, that is it total pop one coin, for lot1622 their are 2 coins that is one of them and the other one is in another NGC registry set, so they are both accounted for, and lot number1639 is the only MS69 in Olympia series to date and according to NGC will probably be the only 69 in Olympia as they didnt grade well so that is a real nice rare coin, their is one other MS69 in this series to date and it from the Chicasaw set I believe and I seen the journal where it is in a type set in the NGC registry. So if you are not ancient like me and too old and plan on being around to finish the series this is a golden opportunity at these prices otherwise they will be just left to my grandson, who so far has no interest in coins whatsoever, and I still have to finish paying off the hospital bills, so the money would help more than passing them on. Heck 2 of you get together and buy the whole set believe me you wont find them anywhere for these prices, this is about half of what I paid for them and that is the truth. Last but not least you all wiped out my First Spouse Series last week also, how did you like them prices I told you they were less than melt, well I have 4 more left all MS70 and again I am letting them go for less than melt so you can sort of figure that out as you bid, but they should fly out of here again, it has been a pleasure I have enjoyed this immensely and without you folks I and my family would of not been able to do what we did for my niece, we sincerely thank you . I hope to see you bidding on teletrade tomorrow the auction is from 3 to 10 EST May 30th, but I think you can actually put in a max bid early if you see somethings you really want, SOMEBODY OPEN YOUR EYES AND GET THE AMERICAN THE BEAUTIFUL SERIES !!! I have listed

    Here 's Your Chance

    By Gilbie,

    It Has Never Been Better!!!
    Hello Lucky People or Person, if you have been looking everywhere for the MS68 Business Strike America the Beautiful Quarters, here is your chance for the remainder of my set, I wasnt gone to do this but for financial reasons I had no other choice, my niece is the little girl who got the new kidney, thanks to all of you who bought up my sets, anyway we still have some more bills so I had to finish off my last little piece of my ATB set and all of these coins are condition rarities and always will be as far as I can tell, and from what NGC says, for one because of the Early release portion and when you look at the coins you will see that three of the coins only have a pop of one and this is it, their is a complete matching 2011 MS68 set of the Denver for and then several other MS68 from 2010, so whether you are putting the set together yourself and I looked their are 65 of you all who need all of these coins, I paid well over 3000.00 just for the MS68's, dont get these mixed up with the SMS coins, like some people will try and trick you, these are the Business Strike versions, just look on ebay and you will find very few of them because their are very few, check the pop report. But anyway they have these coins listed from 800.00 to 1200.00 each . I have made it real easy as I have to just get the cash so I am selling each 68 for 280.00 which means you have to bid 300.00 and the 67's for 45.00 each real simple, so if their is a dealer out their or one of you guys who is really collecting the series here is your shot, to triple your money in the future , or just have some of the nicest and hardest coins to obtain in the set, you noticed if you look at these in my registry, I did have the first place set till I had to sell off some of my others and I was hoping I could hold on to these as these cannot be duplicated. Anyway they will be in the Teletrade auction tomorrow night Wednesday, June 15th from 3 to 9 EST. As a fellow registry member this is a real opportunity for someone who has a few dollars that he has been waiting for some coins that can only go up in value. Thank you for your time and GOD Bless You All. Gilbie
