Don't you love it when you go to a dealer and say "I need a "insert coin here" in gem condition." and then the dealer proceeds to pull out a roll...
I told eBay I want a 'blocked sellers' list. That way when I do a search, I don't get their auctions in the results.
Lol! I bet there are people stupid enough to do that too...
Lance, What kind of money should this coin bring? The auction is too young to get a feel for where it might end up. That would look great in my...
My .02, worth what you paid for it ;) , is that steps are nice, but overrated when it comes to putting a nice set together. I go for eye-appeal,...
I agree with that and raise the dealer's stupidity by one: They sell coins in "SEGS" grading slabs! RUN from any dealer that doesn't break coins...
I saw many of the pics that were the same pics. I saw 21 listings that had 23 or 28 pics. Here is one of the pics representing 21s: (What's wrong...

That is odd... I can't see the govt having a bunch of little silver beads on hand to trade for a paper dollar. I was always told that the exchange...
Definately keepers. They are worth more than face value for sure. Don't get me wrong, they won't make you rich... You might even decide that they...
It was illegal to sell them. Now it is legal. eBay just hasn't caught up yet and changed their policy.
Thread resurrection! IT IS A-LIVE!
I have 3 containers, one for copper, one for zinc, and one for 82s. I toss the coins in the appropriate buckets. Takes only a minute. Then...
It's been so long ago, I forgot the year, but I found one of the hard dates. The coin was so ugly. It was rusted, corroded, ugly black/brown, full...
I wonder if this isn't another 'seeding' of rare material by the mint to bolster revenue. I hear people saying the 2008/rev 07 ASE was done on...
In a mint sealed bag of golden dollars.
