We completed our recent run of shows with the PAN show in Monroeville, PA in mid-May.  As usual, we acquired quite a few wonderful coins, including nearly twenty Liberty Seated halves (not counting several we sent out for grading), several tough date Seated dollars, some nice Bust quarters and a few choice Bust halves.  Two of the Bust halves we acquired are a wonderfully toned 1806 in PCGS AU-50, and an amazingly attractively obverse toned 1817 pedigreed to the fabulous Pittman collection (shown below).  Our nicest acquisition was a PCGS AU-53 example of the rare 1858-S quarter (shown below).  If you are looking for an 1858-S in a lower grade, we also obtained a PCGS VF-35 and a raw VG-10.  

The PAN show was very active and it seemed that we were very busy at our table, both buying and selling.  Sales met our somewhat aggressive expectations, and buying was good also.  For those who think the coin market is in the doldrums, in our last newsletter we offered an 1823/2 quarter in PCGS Good-4, and it sold in five minutes!
