It's like this, Kurt: If you know how to counterfeit money in a way that's undetectable, then you choose to, without coercion, disclose this...
If getting whatever is the ridiculously price Buffalo, get it slabbed, as the price is likely driven by condition. As for the 86... are you...
So, that being the case, isn't it pointless to explain a process with enough detail for coin doctors to use, since there's no way to discern...
Right... and this is why other members on the forum don't post such things... y'know, avoiding the encouragement of accelerated toning. (That's my...
$50 for a used holder? As for the actual price... eh, I don't know. eBay usually sees Merc rolls sell for $90-$100 per, so you'll be asking a...
Not sure you're going to get anywhere near the $180 flip that you're asking on it, but good luck: http://www.ebay.com/itm/122096269389
If you're truly using only acetone, and this is "rust" (sic; re: oxidation), there should be zero impact on the oxidation. Acetone removes organic...
The memorial Lincoln cents (the ones with the different images on the reverse) were supposedly thicker than the standard coins. Did your roll have...
Again, I said common Ikes. This conversation began with 77-P Ikes. As each point you made was addressed, you evolved the conversation to 1973-P...
I understand that the thread title is about halves, but your entire argument up to this point has been about Ikes. I've never heard of Ikes going...
I'm not missing the points. I think they're flawed in nature. 1) Hoarders are young. If the hoarders are young, you can likely get the coins out...
You already did. It's copper. Copper reacts with sulfur. The cardboard likely is non-archival, so it gasses off some sulfuric acid and other...
I think the "slick" is a Peace dollar, and you posted the reverse as the obverse... pretty sure the bottom shows legs.
Given all the resources (and the fact that you can have a member VAM designate for $6) available for VAMs, why not attribute your guess (take all...
You ignored the entire point of what I was saying that the reason supply doesn't exist is the lack of a market. The part you quoted was my...
You missed my point, in that case. I'm saying the supply is thin due to the LACK of a market. You're saying demand is thin due to the lack of a...
I have the coin in hand, and it's my third 36A over two weeks. :) It's only MS63, so it's not worth having resubmitted just for the attribution....
Right. The range I gave was half to one and half grade ABOVE the high end for that grade. For example, MS-64. MS-64 no bean = under MS-64 & 2/3...
Why? Are you saying that you suspect PCGS & NGC under-grade coins submitted to them more than 1% of the time? If anything, the ratio reinforces,...
I think it's more a function of what CAC does, what CAC costs and who can submit to them. $12.50 per coin to have a "bump" if CAC deems a gold...
