wygold Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I picked up this 1857 Flying Eagle Cent today. It's not the greatest grade but it is the oldest coin in my collection to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WingedLiberty1 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 1877-S Trade Dollar (PCGS XF40). I bought this raw coin off eBay last month and got the grade back last week. I've been looking for an attractive, colorful, and cheap Trade Dollar for about 3 years (for my colorfully toned U.S. Type Set) and finally found one that I like. Some very light hairlines on the upper left obverse, but not harsh enough to prevent a problem free grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler N. Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Went to a local shop today and picked this 72 DDO up for a great price. This was definitely an impulse buy but I couldn't say no to the deal. The purple toning is much nicer than my less-than-desirable photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtryka Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Nice haul Wygold, I was in Portland last week and bough a 2014 silver Britannia and a 2008 silver Philharmonic from one of the gold shops on 3rd Ave. near the Dekum Building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wygold Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Thanks jtryka. Nice score, I think I know we're your talking about. I haven't been downtown yet, mainly been sticking around Beaverton. I've been to a couple of shops around Portland and I had a very bad experiences with one of dealers. IDK if it's just me or the dealer, but this one made me feel very uncomfortable. I went to one shop were they had 75% of their inventory was foreign currency(mostly Asian) and the guy didn't want to look at my coins (I usually take some with me for trade). He was first not packing heat and after I asked about the 1984 Prestige Proof set in one of the display cases, he went to the back and came out packing 2 handguns like I was gonna try to rob him or something. I don't think I'll go back to his shop again even though the prestige set he was offering was $25.00 and the coins had no visual issue from what I can see nor did the OGP had any visual issues. I really wanted it and I would have bought it but I didn't have cash on me and he didn't take plastic. I guess I rather buy the 1984 prestige proof set from someone else for a little higher price and that won't make me feel like a criminal when I walk into their shop. I got the ASE & Morgan from Liberty Coin & Currency in Beaverton. The 64's I picked up in Hillsboro and the owners daughter gave me the buff's.

jtryka Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I used to live in Raleigh Hills, and Liberty Coin was usually pretty good. I remember when Columbia Coin was downtown on 5th, but they weren't there anymore, I did a google search later and found they moved outside of town somewhere. I remember my first interaction with them was similar to yours, they didn't seem interested in helping etc. but then I kept coming back and spending money and eventually they became my favorite shop in town. I would have liked to visit them, but I didn't have a car on this trip so maybe next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny9434 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Picked up a new War Nickel for my slowly-getting-there set. pardon my ignorance but what does the T on the slab stand for? i dont remember seeing that before. thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coindude Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 T = toned and W = white on slabs that had that designation. They didn't lay long with those designations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
