The way to 'bury' something is to make a round hole (6"ish) in your floor, core drill for concrete, hole saw for wood... Then get a PVC tube to...
FIAT money was adopted for the purpose of fleecing the sheeple... To say that we could never return to the gold standard is to give up hope. If it...
"In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value....
No. Some special edition UNCs and proofs were 40%, but not all. No circulating versions were made.
Looks suspicious for an 1813! :dead-horse:
I have experimented with boiling dug coins and it didn't seem to hurt anything. Took off dirt, left circulation cameo intact.
"Rubbing between thumb and index finger..." That is the 'rub' so to speak. When you "rub" dirt off, the dirt becomes the 'sand' in 'sandpaper' and...
Ron, he was using those pics as examples of what he has found in circulation, not what he is considering buying. IMO those have little value over...

I have decided if I ever do a Morgan set, it will just be the single Dansco date set. I doubt I'll live long enough to finish the 2 volume set,...

There are plenty of good deals for those that shop well. Just gotta steer clear of the bad elements on the bay.
Exactly! This is why I can't stand post nazis (not moderators) that run around and answer questions with comments like: "Do a search"... rather...
Let me tell you, I have learned a LOT by making stupid comments and being set straight! lol Seriously though, I have given comments similar to...
They are fine for most any coin. IMO, you might err on the side of caution by leaving out extreme high grades or rarities. I have all my coins in...
SEGS is a 'basement' grader. Much of their stuff I have seen, IMO, looks like it was pulled from a front jeans pocket and placed in an MS-70...
That seller's name sticks out to me. Not in a good way either.
Separate names with a comma.
