    In it's final hours. Still plenty of great prices available for fillers and a few high MSs in 59's including a Top Pop 10c. Have a great Night !

    Being my birth year I was fond of all but the 1c 59 and 25c 59, ok and the 5c 59d, were my favorite due to their strikes and liking those particular denominations. The 10c 59 I was pleased with due to it being rated a Top Pop in its category. They will be missed equally.

    narrowing what I'm going after and the result is the sale of the coins listed below. Have a look-see and see if something catches your eye ! A few nice ones 58' flying eagle, 08' buffalo, couple very nice 59's(at least in my opinion & NGC) ...and a nice assortment of other 59's that had me in 2nd place for that year @ NGC. Happy trails/bidding and thanks for looking ! Ed G.

    Along with a 1858 sm letter 1c I sent in, I also sent this in to use up remaining credits before expiration. I didn't "aquire" but was given as change at a liquor store, don't judge hahaha. Thought a cool enough find to keep.
  19. EdG_Ohio
    Been sitting on this for a couple of years and decided to send in before credits were null, glad I did. Not the greatest luster/shine but very happy with the grade.

    Thought I had posted this on NGC at one time but couldn't find it...good excuse to post it. Although not a "Worlds Fair" it was one of the precursors to the World Fairs we know now and my father obtained his degree, and Valedictorian of his class, at the Ohio Mechanics Institute in the late 40's. The 1871 Cincinnati Industrial Exposition ....more info here ...this link is a very long read but some nice Cincinnati history on my hometown.

    Still lurkin' and workin' ... in between those periods I've managed to upgrade of a few of my 1959s. 2 recent ones being a 59' 10c MS68 (top pop) and a 59' 1c MS67RD, both of which puts me a few hundred pts away from #1 in the MS 59' category (currently #2)

    What I'd like to know is that, are we going to be forced to use this for future submissions ? It states select dealers in Jan. 23' is this a option for now ? Why on earth would any established collector ever consider using this lame-brain idea ? My membership expires in the spring and even though I'm not on the level of many here I see no reason to pursue any future submissions, even though currently a option through dealers. Apparently someone never heard of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" ....see how it pans out.

    In addition to the 59' Jefferson I acquired a few weeks back I decided that my daughter didn't need to be riding a white horse w/all the dressings to her upcoming wedding this Saturday but instead she would appreciate me getting a couple more upgrades for my 59' Birth Year collection. (I probably would have been stuck cleaning up after the horse anyways) So with that being said, a very nice addition of a 59(P)rev label a lil' messed up but I didn't buy the label and 59D Washington piece. TY Heritage for having these available...now about those Lincolns The addition of the last 3 had my ranking jump from #11 to #2 in the 59' MS category. Images borrowed until I get time to snap my own.

    Been quite some time since I've been around and posted something, so with that being said...with the OT I've been working I purchased this a few weeks back and was a nice addition to my 59' series. Better pic coming some day but don't bet on it...hahaha. Got a 25c MS67 59' I'm eyeballing but someone is being very (can't use the word) and at least my bidding is making them go over 30% of it's value...buggers.

    Although I don't have a coin that was repurposed for a old fashion tool, I do have my modernized leveling (coin) tool that works perfectly after losing the rubber foot on my coffeemaker. ...and it's probably cheaper then buying a another rubber foot...haha.

    Upgraded a 1959 50c for my registry, birth year, from a ms63 to ms66. Waiting on confirmation from our host to add. A few more upgrades, I hope, in the wings. Have a Great day All !

    Ahhh...pipe dreams For those that wish to see what the yearly or cash payout may be after taxes for your state try here (MM game stats available also): https://www.usamega.com/powerball/jackpot Ohio would let me have $216,260,073 (approximately) For myself, I'd like to get a coin from each country in the world that was in existence in 1959. Not by simply buying the coin on the internet or local shop but to travel to each country and purchase it there, where feasible, and not a place where doing so could be life threatening. I think the adventure itself would be a greater reward than the coin(s). Just me thinkin' out loud.

    I'm sure you are well aware of who the individual is on the Buffalo nickel and my gold piece but perhaps she'd like to read up on this man (yes he does make for a ugly woman ) some, should she care to. I do have a soft spot for their history and culture. https://nativeheritageproject.com/2012/05/21/john-two-guns-white-calf/
