I think all three above me are good guesses. I would go with acid, since it best explains, to me, overall look of coins. The pitting would be...
I would bet on that. Way too many really weird design devices to be plating. I wonder if its the same size as a normal cent.
I have stored BU coins in non-pvc plastic bags for decades with no adverse reaction. Plastic bags are great because you can remove all of the air....
My local dealers who I spend quite a bit with know me, but have never asked to see an id. There is no way I would EVER produce an ID in relation...
Even then pay attention to the "track record". One of the oldest cons in the pm world is to every year publish how "pm is going o the moon this...
Yeah, but at what relatively would you give up? Even at $60 are you better off than investing in the Dow if you count dividends? I doubt it....
We have had problems in the past. I remember @Garlicus I believed lost some money. That is why Doug posted his warning on that section. Having...

I never thought you did want to be "right" sir. You are correct, I like to rationally discuss it as well. My earnest hope is I find out I am wrong...
I like them, having a few, but not so easy to find unless willing to pay crazy Ebay "find me a sucker" BIN prices.
I agree about Asia, they use it as a store of value because they trust it over banks. My wife even told me about 13 years ago you always buy gold...
You never know how it will work out. I got two group lots of greek bronzes a while ago at Stacks, Just got the coins from my sister a couple of...
I always liked Rome. It was the first entertainment program that showed more of what I believe Rome was really like, from the graffiti, places to...
I am kind of taking a break, but do have hopes for next week. A couple of items that rarely come up for sale are available, but I am afraid of...
