haha I guess thats good. Often I wonder how I got into it and if there is a future. So what do you think of the run on the connecticut quarters? they sold out of the bags in something like 3 days i think? I don't know exactly. If demand was that huge, just think of what prices they'll fetch in the future... When I called the Mint on the 15th they said they weren't going to offer the bags until November. Often it seems the mint is giving out wierd info. cgi.ebay.com A pennsylvania quarter bag for sale...

Hi Carl, recently I submitted my 1942s unc penny to ANACS for official grading and got a shock when it came back. It came back as AU-58 whizzed net EF ##. I was surprised. I bought it when I was a kid from a dealer who I thought was honest. I had saved up about all of my summer earnings to buy that penny. he had it in a special airtight container, etc. I definitely overpaid for that coin. However I guess it can be used as a good learning point for people in the future. If you don't know whats good, slabs might be the way to go.
