+1 :D ...thank Cloudsweeper. It's from his book.
According to the Numismatist that authenticated it as "uniface", the weight of the piece is consistent with normal wear. He felt it would weigh...

Small world...thanks, Rono!
Patrick Heller has an interesting article in Coin New Update. I don't know enough about the silver market to offer an opinion one way or the...
Energy is a great defensive play. I did well in energy a few years ago. I was thinking about that on Friday, but figured the smart money was...
