More on these here.
I picked up the "proofs" from Katz over the last several months and I sent them off for authentication because, well, I'm unsure of them myself. Assuming they are authentic, I've requested that they be encapsulated in the PMG multi-note holder, with them being uniface it would only make sense that they be housed together. Whether or not they make it through authentication is going to be a matter of great angst for me, I'm hoping they pass weather as a proof, color trial, scrap or whatever. I'll take anything other than QA.
The auctions over the last few months have been less than impressive and I'm hoping things will pick up in August with the WFM kicking things off as we start getting closer to the holiday season and the end of the year. In the meantime, I'll be storing up nuts for the winter in hopes of acquiring a big score before the end of the year and selling off some of my coins in series that I no longer pursue and acquiring examples that in series that I do. Coin acquisitions have kept me busy during this nocturnal note phase.
One last note. My favorite pickup as of late, at least the one that I am the most excited about, is this lovely commemorative note from Abkhazia, images from Banknote News. I read an article on it in recently, loved the look of it, and just had to add it to my collection. It's in route and I can't wait to see it in hand.
