acan451 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Thanks I just got lucky, if you surf Ebay long enough you sometimes find a bargain. I going to post a 2005 S Lincoln Cent NCG PR69 Ultra Cameo Proof. I don't collect these but as an investment it can be a big help, it's all about being at the rite place at the right time. I won this for ( one cent...) NCG price $17.50 Like I said some times you just get lucky, And on my budget if I don't get lucky I don't get the coin . Hope you all enjoy the coins Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acan451 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Hey Bobby Can you believe that. I could not believe it when I won this coin. I just put a bid in at the beginning of the bidding. Forgot about it and got a email saying you won But I could not remember what I bid on six days before. What a shock when I saw it. Gotta love it when ya win it.

Buffalo Head Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Here's one I'll share with ya, not a U.S. coin though, I hope I don't get into any kind of trouble for this! I hardly ever stray away from my Buffs very often, especially with world coins, but I ran across this one and I really like it . This is a 1929 German Graf Zeppelin Commemorative coin, about the size of a U.S. half dollar and I think it's way cool. Great strike and luster on this one and the color makes this coin show like a super star, at least I think so......Thanks for looking....Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acan451 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Hey Bobby I was just going over some past post's. You asked me a question about a coin I posted. Don't think you got your answer so here it is. Its a one troy ounce reproduction of a Morgan Dollar. And I have to tell you, when I got it I was very impressed it is beautiful Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acan451 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 (edited) Hey guys I know this is going to sound dumb but what is a Dansco, From what I can tell is it an album to place coins in a year for each coin. And that is a real nice Quarter very nice....... Alan Edited March 19, 2011 by acan451 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are other types, for me personally tho', the Danscos just look much better. Pics of Dansco's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acan451 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Thanks Bobby I though that" what they where but was no certain. Thanks for the site Bobby Thanks again Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Bobby is absolutely right Alan, Dansco is the company the makes the album (they are the market leader), they make them for many US and world series, and the advantage over whitman folders, is that you don't break your thumb trying to get the coin in the hole, and you can see both the obverse and reverse of the coin once in the album. Overall a nice way to store and display your collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acan451 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Thanks guys I think I will get one next month for my Mercury's. Got allot of the over the past wile just for the silver investment.

acan451 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Hey Bobby Since you told me about the Dansco coin holder, I got to thinking about getting my Grand kids interested in collecting. So I thought I would start them off on Jefferson's, and I was surfing EBay tonight and found this. Since you are the Jefferson expert and my friend I wanted to share this with you and the rest of the guys. I swear I won 72 of these 1940 to 2009 for $ 3.50. I hope I did not pay to much I hope you all get as much of a kick out of these as I did Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see the dates so hopefully you didn't get a bunch of duplicates. Didn't see any wartime nickels in that group, bummer. Have fun with'em!
