Some of you may have heard of Forrest Fenn and his story of the hidden treasure chest (video below). After surviving cancer, he thought hard about...
You can always wear a headpiece like watchmakers do. That'll help with the shaking (there are other ones for those of you with glasses). Here's a...
I was thinking of buying it, but I figured I should ask first. The original pictures I've seen on Google looked very different so that was...
MS64 or MS65
I saw this coin and thought that it seems very well struck with a high relief. It looks neat with the owl but I'm not too well versed with ancient...
I wonder... do you get a higher cash value for trades, as opposed to selling it to dealers outright for cash? Because if you do, then that may be...

Acetone, or acetone then Xylene, followed by an acetone rinse. But yours is an extreme example... some members may not like this next one but...
Interesting... so I wonder if PayPal will continue to ban for Cuban coins now that there's a settlement. Also, if you sold early 20th century...
If you can get a nice mint set slabbed together, then I can see it holding a little premium. NGC no longer issues multi-slabbed holders, so what's...
Just fyi, I have a couple ammo cans, and depending on the can that you have, you'll have to get some padding. PCGS and NGC slabs fit when stacked...
I'd say AT. The Morgan's reverse and the Peace dollar's obverse have color changes that don't have that classic subtle change that you'd expect...
I prefer Quadrums, but if you have really expensive coins maybe get them slabbed. Although Air-Tites probably offer one of the best reusable...
