added a couple more coins to my Modern Comm Set

Hi everybody,

 

 

 

It's been almost a year since my last post and last purchase...but I have visited regularly to keep up on the conversations and posts.

 

 

 

I recently got back into the game and made a couple purchases to add to my modern commemorative collection. The first is the MS Baseball Hall of Fame. I am a big baseball fan I think the Mint did a great job with this coin. Both the obverse and reverse along with the curved feature really make it stand out! I purchased both the MS and proof version of the $1 silver coin from the Mint and had no issues making the purchase or receiving the coins. Those 2 coins will remain ungraded.

 

 

 

Now, when I went looking for the graded versions on the secondary market...WTF!! I could not believe the prices being asked and received for these coins earlier this year! What are people thinking of when paying so much for a "replicated" autograph on the label. I could understand if it was a real autograph, but it is ridicules for a replica. So I just waited around and bid on the MS version with Hall of Fame label and won it for $84. I don't understand people sometimes....but it's their collection so I am happy for them.

 

 

 

The other coin I purchased is the Civil Rights act of 1964. All I can say about this coin is I believe the powers to be were lazy and just rehashed the 2013 Girls Scouts design. Very sad indeed!

 

 

 

Well everybody, enjoy your coins and I will try not to be too much of a stranger.
