    positif review of the show
    i spend few hours yesterday at the show, for been the last day it was very busy, better than last day (sunday) of the show last year when half of the dealer were already gone, so changing the show days was a good move.
    with my wanted list on hand looking for earlie wheat and earlie proof silver coins graded by NGC. i found no coins good enough for me too purchase( sad ). but what i found is the prices been above FNV on most of the coins i was looking at, so i guess the demand is far better than last year when you could still find good deals.
    it was exiting watching the HERITAGE auction, a lot of money come in into the hobby, good if you are a seller but bad for buyer in budget so mabye it's why i see prices jumping on late 50s and earlie 60s mint and proof coins.
    but it still the best hobby just little bit more expensive.
    have a great week

    buying unopened proof sets
    i found 2 sets of 1964 proof sets unopened one for $26 and one for $28 when i opened all coins are spotless (hard too find for that date) and both 1/2 dollar are accented hair. there is still little treasures out there.
    im goin too send the best of each coins too NGC for grading. too start a 1964 self made proof set.
    and i think im goin too look for more unopened proof sets this weekend at the long beach coin show ( if they are at a good prices) or i will concentrate on my ms66rd 10s and 20s wheat.
    next week i will give you my imput on the show and i hope this time is better than last year.
    talk to you soon

    no up and down arrows on the price guide
    happy memorial day to all and a special thanks too all the veterans.
    i was looking at the price guide today for the wheat cents and i d'int see any arrows for the price changes for any coins, yesterday on the weekly market e-mail it show a lot of wheat with prices changes so i wonder if NGC as problems with updating the price guide.
    and i just renew my membership, if i could make a wish i would like too be able to get a report with price changes for my collection and not have to do it manually.
    getting ready for the LONG BEACH show next weekend
    have a great and safe weekend thank you

    show and dealer versus internet
    i just added all my coins to the inventory and my sets 2011 was a good year.
    for many years i did all my coins purchases from dealers and shows and i use too finish the year by spending 60 too 70 % of the ngc value giuide, but about 18 months i decided too focus on web buying ( e-bay, teletrade and more).
    this year i finish at 46 % of ngc book value not bad even with few coins i get are pcgs and we all know pcgs value is higher than ngc.
    maybe i will continue but i miss the personal contact with the collecting community
    happy hunting in 2012

    add what i think a under value coin
    good evening
    i just get my last purchase from Heritage, a PF69*CAMEO 1972S 50c Kennedy with a sensus of 61 at this * grade with 140 in UC, i over paid a little (56.00 including BP)but is my first * coin and is my 200s coin in my collection so i d'int mind spending a little more as we all know sometime our heart take over our brain and i think the Kennedy serie is under value with a lot of potential in the future specially in high grade

    keeping the way it is!!!!
    NGC should look at giving two scores for each registry set, keep the current score and add 1 score including the NGC coins only, that would please every one including my self.

    benefits of a CAC sticker on a slab?
    couple times i was looking at a coin in auction with a CAC sticker on so i wonder,is there a benefit of having a CAC sticker on a slab? and should it be more expensive?

    any value too send a pcgs coin too ngc
    i was just wondering, when i look at pcgs and ngc census there are are big difference on amount of coins graded per grade, like pcgs 0 coin in proof 70 and ngc as over 200.
    so my question is would it make sense for me too send a pcgs proof 69 too ngc and hoping a 70 will come back?
    thank you for your imput
    happy new year
    patrick
