Old Pueblo Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Haven't bid a coin from TT in a year, but I was looking at Walkers and threw a bid that held up. Sight unseen, is always a risk, but the bid was right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad we didn't both go for it Shane's a good guy - I'm sure if you sent him a message, he could work something out with you. He might not want to make it a standard policy, but he might make an exception for someone he knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIM F. Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Upgrading the AG/G coins in my Barber Half collection when a decent buy comes along (especially the ones with the weak reverses). Picked this one up. It may not be high grade, but it's an attractive example and can be tough to find in G/VG (where it's still affordable) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coin Trader Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Are those staples holding the slabs together? I have never seen that slab before. very cool Not staples. Those are plastic tabs. It's a clam shell slab, seam along the edge. When it's assembled, the tabs snap-lock into place. Label at top folds over to the reverse with the Tulving information, creating a tamper-evident seal at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brg5658 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 In the past week, I snagged two sterling silver medals dated 1969. Both will join my thematic horse collection. The first is already graded by NGC as MS67, and commemorates the 275th Anniversary of Kingston, New Hampshire. It features a horse drawn carriage on the obverse. The issue was limited to 1,000 pieces, and mine is numbered 328 on the medals edge. The 2nd is a raw example of the Heraldic Art Medal #31, commemorating the Bicentennial of San Diego (1769-1969). I plan to eventually have this one put in an NGC holder and will add it to my NGC custom set. For now it will remain in an album with my approximately 80 other raw horse coins, medals, and tokens. I am a huge fan of the Heraldic Art Medal series, as the high relief designs are quite stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
