FINEST KNOWN!

关于此套币: This set is the culmination, AND continuation of work done over decades of collecting/Searching. These coins amongst numismatic friends, and colleagues were our “Finest Known” sets. Our worn Dansco Type albums housed examples of the minters art which had seen better days with decades and decades of use in commerce; some likely circulating a hundred years or more? What were the times and places in the history of our great nation we could only dream about, or reflect in the readings written in history? This small group of friends, and coworkers strived to obtain yet another example of some early piece were prime examples of the “Thrill of the Hunt” which every coin collector has experienced in his or her lifetime! If any of us obtained a new addition for our collections, we would not only have the immediate thrill of the find, but bragging rights for the moment. This endeavor of locating the absolute worst example of a given numismatic treasure was well prior to the advent of PCGS’s Low Ball Registry sets. Our only criteria to be included in the set was that coins could not have damage, and didn’t even have to have a date or identifiable mintmark; just be recognizable as to what coin it was when minted. Now that I’m exhibiting on the PCGS Registry, I’ve had to “Upgrade” some of my set so as to meet PCGS’s criteria which has been a challenge. If you are reading this, and believe you have a piece of the puzzle which I’m lacking, please offer, as I’m ALWAYS looking for upgrades!! Many thanks to all. [email protected] This set is one tough set to complete, and not saying that due the cost of some of the coins, but the actual scarcity of some of these type coins in Poor and Fair that have survived in undamaged condition... Some, for over two hundred years! One has to wonder just how scarce or really rare they might be in comparison to some of their Mint state counterparts!? My sincere gratitude to the dozens of collectors, professional numismatists, and fellow Low-Ball enthusiasts who over the period of decades helped in the making of this set.... Without your help, this set would never have been possible; thank-you!!
