What does your question have to do with the "mercenary" comment? You're the one who brought "mercenary" into the conversation, not me. My...
Or perhaps California's first trans-gender operation?
"Unnecessarily mercenary" is a red herring here. Members who felt it was in any way improper could simply decline to identify any of the coins....
Agreed. Another benefit, due to the very short time they circulated, nearly all are full-weight bullion, nothing like the paper-thin early...
Quick test, 3 vertical stars, always postwar Syria.
At this stage in your coin-career, no one single item will help you more than a new Redbook, provided you read it cover-to-cover. The 1800 dollar...
I'm not surprised at a coin club auction, where's there's probably a pretty good selection of numismatic coins in that same price range, $10 to...
As of today, March 25, a 1964 Kennedy contains $6.42 worth of silver at "spot" price, so $10 is not totally out of line, although I doubt if...
It's worth noting that the first global (silver) bullion coin, the Maria Theresa thaler, was nowhere near sterling fineness. It was struck at...

I would think Singapore eBay (if it still exists) would be a prime market. A few years ago, its listings were free so it could compete...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Scans show both sides (and size comparison) of a copper or copper-brass British naval medal commemorating the victory of the...
Once you have the coin back (correctly), send the NGC CEO a postcard with the URL to this thread, and, ask him if this is the way he wants his...
My buddy sets up at the monthly (Columbus, Ohio) coin show, and he deals only in bullion, no numismatic coins. This past Sunday, he said people...
Indeed, much-circulated clad quarters of the 1960s turn up all the time, and they're already 50+ years old.
It's magic. Somebody like Home Shopping Network takes a penny worth $0.01, spends $0.07 to stamp Kennedy's profile in Lincoln's face, and all of...
Interesting. I wonder what they possibly do to make a $1 bill last four times as long.
This answer is not quite an answer to your question, but it's in the ball park. I think there is at least a possibility that Trump will replace...
Separate names with a comma.
