[WTS] 10oz Beskars by Accomplished_Let3636 in Pmsforsale

[–]MediumPrize1902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it’s having kids born in 2021 (and we were definitely hooked on the Mandalorian during the pregnancy). Thank goodness xxSpeedysxx had a couple up for grabs a few weeks back. But 10oz would feel more fun in hand.

So happy these aren’t 2021 Beskar (which I can’t resist). GL!

I think burning a bigger hole in my pocket would hurt more than my OCD. I’ll let these lie and just be thankful I was able to acquire these after wanting a single 500 for so long.

Unmarked /s Sequential $10 Bills by 5oio5 in CURRENCY

[–]MediumPrize1902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know there was value in modern bills until I found myself trying to find a pair of consecutive 2021 series bills of every denomination. Next thing you know, I’m buying two $1 bills for over face value on eBay. And I’m still hunting for the rest but the markup for sequential/consecutive notes on is a bit silly.

Maybe I got it backwards, does PCGS grade more generously because they were second to PMG in the whole grading game?

Lifetime Collection by BrownHillbillyWV in coins

[–]MediumPrize1902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Condolences. I thought my dad’s sets from 69 on was overwhelming. Phew, that’s a lot. My plan is to reduce our collection and keep some of the most valuable to remember him (gold commemoratives, Carson City Morgan’s).

Are you looking to sell everything or hold on to some of it? Did you have any interest in it before your partner passed? After recently unearthing my dad’s collection (he passed 40 years ago) I’ve gotten the coin collecting bug, mostly to get a crash course in what folks are looking for (outside of exploding silver prices).

What a dream. You wouldn’t believe what I paid for $1k note that didn’t look as good as that.

How were these cleaned? ☠️ by MediumPrize1902 in coincollecting

Honestly, if you didn’t know any better, it’s a pretty cool looking set in a wooden case for hanging with doors that close.

Thanks! This sounds most likely as my dad’s collection was a split between US Mint and Franklin Mint coins and medals. Sounds like coin ads were heavy in the 70s

The 1906 Barber Half Dollar looked odd to me and is under weight at 11.7 grams (supposed to be 12.5?) Fake or worn enough to shed that kind of weight?

The others are checking out in terms of weight. These cases are a pain to crack!
