Not too much of a surprise. Everyone was wondering what to do, people selling pm to raise cash, etc. Look back at the last crisis, it did not move...
Lol. My father in law just sold his 14 baht necklace to cash in on the gold price. 14 baht is just shy of 7 ounces. Put that on a tiny man and it...
Come on now OP. Seller lists item as "flying eagle dollar coin", does not accept returns, lists he is from Fairbanks Alaska, (I am sure good...
No, not what I see. My sister in law does not have much money, but whatever she has she has it in gold too, and that has been purchased in the...
I would disagree with the supposition that gold is underowned by those in the Far East, India, Middle East, etc. Everyone I know with family there...
Looks like the dagger type to me if I had to guess.
Very scarce little coin. A friend from my coin club is literally THE world expert on Thasos coinage and has the largest collection in the world of...
No problem sir. This is why we come here. As long as new members ask honest questions, and will listen to our answers, we love helping out new...
More than a bit. That is only 2/3rd the intended weight. Its a pot metal counterfeit. You can go to any Asian flea market and find them today,...
Weigh it. Should be telling. If I saw this coin I would assume its false unless I could be proven otherwise. If you gave me a weight too light for...
No chance at all. Setting yourself up to be ripped off with arbitrage takers at times. One thing most people do not remember. For most of our...
I am leery. I usually concentrate on the globe map, and not a fan of this one at all. Looks cast/very porous. Any chance its sea salvage? Btw,...
Did my part. Emptied the change jar for $340 the other day. I do have a few bags of cents if they want me to turn those in. The bags of wheats and...
Whatever they declare the oldest I have a copy of. Right now I am pretty sure its the striated Lydian electrum pieces, but I have the first...
But why? Never made sense to me why one side was more important than the other. Not saying you aren't right HOW they do it, but asking if its...
I would have thought it would have gotten a gold bean, not just green. Reverse too nice for the holder IMHO.
Did I miss something? I thought SMS were 65-67.
Yeah but like everything it depends. Its kind of nice having OGP, and if you receive it that way why not keep it? most are not as fancy and huge...
Just found this thread. I have been collecting coins since I was 4, US from that time to about age of 30 or so. I was bored with US coins and was...
I hear you. US collectors, just like ancient collectors, pay more attention to the obverse than the reverse. I was thinking about that as well, so...
