Arg! I've been outbid... I figure it's all in good fun, so long as whoever does end up winning this actually pays for it.
I just had my collection appraised. It came in at a whopping $42. :D
I agree. However, some people collect them and that makes the rarer dates and better quality examples worth a little more to those people. I...
Unless there are unusual circumstances, like in 1964-1966? and 1975-1976.
This auction is already AWESOME, but I think it would be even gooder if the price had another digit or two. There are three days left. Should I...
I'm not sure, since the ASE program is different than normal coins. With other coins, the usmint.gov site sells different years at the same time....
Actually, aren't ASEs produced to meet demand? If so, then I suspect there is no "overproduction". If they produce too many near the end of the...
If the pail is more important to you than the coins, sure thing! If not, then I would carefully remove them and put them in a more appropriate...

...and I thought my store was bad buying them at around $1 and selling them at $3. The new store in town buys them for spot minus 10-15%. If you...
I'm sure you'd be right at the top of their list of offers they're considering. [/sarcasm] :rollling:
Good point. I never thought of it from a "posession of stolen property" perspective.
MF Global has been accused, and many of these accusations are widely accepted as true, of many criminal acts. Their Wikipedia page has some...
I use a reloading scale. It is accurate to within .1 grain, or about .005 grams. It displays three places after the decimal when set to display...
^^^ What he said. If it was easy to find under melt, I'd have a lot more than three ounces. I'm certainly not going to pay 2x melt value for...
