Re: Today I completed my 78-S long nock set

Thanks all; The Tinman got me thinking about this set a few years ago at an ATL GA ANA. Then, I started to collect 78-S dollars when 78-Ps were getting hard to come by.

Today I completed my 78-S long nock set

My set is now 100% but well back of the pack at #6 in the registry. Last coin was an AU details OBV scratched V27A bought from GC. What a neat reverse! With the light toning and that the scratch is largely in the hair, it's not too bad as problem coins go. As always, I will update the set as opportu...

Re: Does SSDC Have an Admin Anymore?

I need a phone # where I can phone in, if possible.; Grant has my number though. I may have to drop off or put the phone on mute a time or two, but will do my best to participate.

Re: 1878s vam 61

...I wonder if the attributions of the unclaimed coins are correct; if original ANACS holders before JR, many are wrong...anyway, this is one of my many 78-S holes.

Re: Goals for 2019

I met my 2018 goals. Somewhere in 2018 I decided to add the 78-CC set to my overall 78 set. I managed to eke into 4th spot by year’s end. My 2019 goal will be to finish the 78-CC set. I also want to reach 38,000 points with my 78-S set, which will be real tough. As for my 78-P set, i’d Just like to ...

Re: Indicating PL rarity

Well some sorting out to do, but I believe in the long run, listing relative rarity of PL / DMPL will help the community. As for me, even though mainly a 78-P collector, I have tried to find PL / DMPL specimens in as many die varieties as possible. There's nothing quite like a PL / DMPL Morgan in my...

Re: FUN 2019 Show

No FUN for me this year :( due to work obligations and vacation blackout period. I was hoping to be able to attend (Orlando is my favorite!), but when the vacation blackout was extended into January, I knew I could not. I will miss seeing familiar faces, meeting new ones and attending the VAM Thing....
