I'm sorry, but *why* do coins like this make it through:...
AU55 MS63 MS64 That or UNC details for the last two. Are those die lines?
I wonder how this fits into the Legal Tender Act (31 U.S. Code § 5103) seeing how this includes debts public and private. (even though it just...
Actually, when the Federal Reserve system was created JP Morgan was *hesitant* to take the position of chairman. He was taking a big paycut, for...

I completely agree. The thing is, all my really good coins are locked away at the bank :c I'm trying to get some date sets going and am looking...
Yeah. Even though I don't think it is as overspeculated as gold right now I have no interest "investing" in silver. I would only purchase it for...
Totally agreed. I pretty much expect everything that's self-slabbed to be a problem coin in some way. The things is, it's not always easy to tell...

Yeah... Despite all the good stuff that's listed I'm not going to just give my credit card info to them. It seems suspect, especially when none of...
