PING: Dave Hinz - 1921-D WLH
Ok, Dave - you DID get close to G-4 money for your 1921-D WLH find from
the junk silver box! Congratulations to you!!! I'm happy for you, and a teeny bit jealous at the same time! Mostly happy, though. It's a great story to hear about the little guy who found the treasure among the big guy's (dealer's) junk! But, the question of the day is: 'So, what are you gonna buy with that money?' -- Eric Babula Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Inquiring minds need to know! |

Yeah, it went right in the ballpark between bid and sell. I'm happy for you, and a teeny bit jealous at the same time! Mostly happy, though. It's a great story to hear about the little guy who found the treasure among the big guy's (dealer's) junk! Has to happen once in a while. It's odd that it didn't really bring me any joy in the time that I owned it, other than the fun of selling it. (shrug) some coins I get attached to, and this isn't one of 'em. But, the question of the day is: 'So, what are you gonna buy with that money?' The buyer sent me money by PayPal within minutes, I initiated the EFT to my bank account right after that. Once it clears, I'm getting cash and driving in to the same dealer to turn that one walker into 40-some. Or... I like the look of the 2005 Sovereign, with the redesigned "Dragon vs. St. George" back. Maybe one of those and the balance in halves. Obviously I don't expect to have the same thing happen ever again, but that one find makes me a whole lot less stressed about price dips in my holdings. This is definately a "don't look back" sale though, because key date coins tend to do pretty well long-term. (shrug) not stressing about that. Dave Dave, I think you did the right thing for you. Even though this is a key-date coin, it wasn't making you happy. So, get rid of it, collect the money, and get something that will make you happy. Afterall, it was found money! So, you're gonna end up with something you really like, for basically nothing! And, I would not look back, either. The coin didn't make you happy anyway. Maybe you can pick up a key-date something or other that WILL give you joy! -- Eric Babula Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA |
