My Worst Purchase Pays Off

[Mokiechan]

At least a little.

 

Hi All,

Hope your Holiday Season was wonderful and the trip back to work yesterday was tolerable.

 

Some of you may recall a journal entry from last year where I mentioned my worst numismatic purchase was a silver ingot poured from a larger ingot from the Nuestra Senora De Atocha. At the time, I offered to sell it for 50 bucks (sort of as a joke although I would have sold if anybody asked). It just sold this past weekend for 200.00 on EbaY.

 

I had placed it on Ebay because I had seen two similar ingots that had sold for about 150.00 and 250.00. Mine split the difference and was a wholly satisfying outcome. Hmmm, I think that PCGS smaple slab has got to be next. One sold for about 179.00 recently.

 

Later,

Malcolm
