The Enfield CollectionAbout this collection (in the owner's words): I began collecting nearly 66 years ago when I got my first paper route. Major portions of my collection have been sold three separate times during my life - whenever I needed the funds. About six years ago I made the decision to convert my collection to PCGS certified and graded coins only. Since then I have submitted hundreds of coins to PCGS, upgraded issues, and added new examples to my collection. The coins in my collection run the gamut from AG3 to PR70. Today my collection is listed in the PCGS Set Registry under the name 'Enfield Collection' - individual sets are listed as 'jaenfield'.Other PCGS Registry items available: Please view my other items on eBay.In addition, other Hand in Hand Consignment items can be found on eBay in the Hand in Hand Store: http://stores.ebay.com/Hand-n-Hand-Consignments
