Default 1st year totals with DFX $$$$

I used the 2009 Red Book and decided to price my finds for 2008. I realize that I'd never get the price listed in the Red Book, but it gives me a good Idea... Mind you, I didn't rank any of my finds above EF-40. I was pleasantly surprised at my totals for my keepers... I did not include my clad finds in this... that's my next project. My grand total for my first year with my DFX was $531.50 !!!! Figure in my jewelry and I've paid for my DFX a couple times over.

Smart of you to not rank any above EF 40, definitely any find coming out of the ground will be waaaaay less than any coin that even had some circulation wear on it. Good job on the total, !! HH

I've gotten a couple of silvers that could probably rate a bit higher... they are in very good condition, but I wanted a conservative estimate.
