dleonard-3 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 The seller was stonetool. The story is kinda interesting. I was searching for an 1855 Large Cent, the knob on ear variety. So I typed in 1855 into the search bar in the Large Cent category. A pretty long list came up, so I started checking all of them out. I was putting a conservative bid on everthing that looked good to me thinking I would still have to be very lucky to win. Well, I won the bid on one of them, but was disappointed to find out that it wasn't the knob on ear variety. I guess I was going a little too fast and didn't notice. Since I already had a better 1855 slant 5's, and feeling that I had bid too much for this one, I contacted the seller to see if he could help me out by offering the coin to the second place bidder, then I would pay him the difference between our bids. He responded that I could send him $6 to cover the ebay cost, and "do not bid on any of my future auctions". I thought that was a little harsh considering the fact that I was simply asking if he could do this for me, not demanding it. I told him I would go ahead and get the item paid and that I was sorry for causing him stress. I guess after thinking about it awhile, he decided that he had over-reacted and he included this Morgan, and another VF 1853 Cent as "bonus" coins in the shipment. I am overwhelmed, and very impressed with this seller. He is one of the few "GOOD GUYS" left. Thanks again, stonetool. I owe you one (or two).

rbrown4 Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Thanks to Tom for helping me in my quest for completing my Buffalo Nickel Collection with this 1924 S which I just received today in the mail. Tom by the way, I will take it. Rey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyMan Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 (edited) ES, some sweet looking Barbers there, particularly the '93-S! Harvey, nice Barber. (thumbs u Stgecko, excellent MS CW commem. I've been looking at the PR70UCAM one for a while now. Dleonard-3, cool to get an '81-S as a "throw in"! (thumbs u Excellent set of pickups there, Rey! Needless to say, any Frankie catches my eye, so it's always nice to see a Frankie variant. CONGRATULATIONS on completing the Buffalo set!!! EDITED TO ADD: DD your post wasn't out yet. Now I can see it. Excellent Walkers! I particularly like the '18 and '18-S. Edited April 8, 2008 by SkyMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomB Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 DD, the 1918 and 1937 WLHs just knocked the bejeesus out of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stgecko Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I agree that 37 WLH is high on the wow factor! Skyman I thought I'd share that I also have a PR70UC of that coin. I bought it before the MS version and the MS pickup was actually an accident. I am glad I got them both however. No I didn't get the PCGS version. Someone is trying to sell one on ebay for over 3500$. I got to tell you I don't see a difference of 2800$ from the NGC version but that's just me.
