Bman, I've heard the same about War Nickels. Refiners hate them, and discourage them by offering extremely low prices, regardless of what...
Furthermore. Even if you get the coins, no problemo, someone somewhere has started a dossier on you. Beware of leaving a paper trail for...
Yes, the LCS should be able to provide an exact trade basis for your $1000+ of spot value. If he can't, or won't, forget him. I would not...
I know first-hand that your personal standards for dealing and collecting are very high, and thus you are eminently deserving of this sensational...
