mbbiker - did you vote you didn't like the ad? I am curious, some people vote they didn't like it. Do you who voted against it think that the...
I finally saw it. Not perfect, but who else is going to be promoting coin collecting on national television! A+ for the effort B for the delivery.
A lot of dealers are tight fisted and will not let go of their coins for a smaller mark up, let alone at a loss. Coins are not the same thing as...
I just don't think it needs to be mandated. I think it would be nice enough if we just changed the reverse of the coins every year, like with the...
I heard that there is equipment from the mint on display. The 1851-O 3 cent, which is supposed to be something special is there. I think it...

The problem I see with flea markets is that you're not dealing with someone who has a lot at stake. With a coin dealer in a brick and mortor...
I asked in another post about ideas on what kind of collection to start. I guess I'm going to go with a non-standard collection, with no...
Hi Pennyman, do you have a picture of it you could share with us? I've never seen one of those.
They don't bother me too much. I guess I just like all coins. They're all nice to me.
