Hi. Welcome to the site. My advice would be to approach these with cautious optimism. You should know in advance that many newcomers have come...
I had to lol when I read this description. I hadn't thought about it that in-depth, but every one of those adjectives probably applies to...
Sweet finds! I might do a little detecting myself today. I've got a place coming up this summer that could be really good. I got a Garrett pro...
Wow coinman. That one is impressive! Great buy. This Morgan is the only CAC slab in my collection so far: [IMG] This is 1 of 76 that CAC...
I think it shows how much they didn't know. Those prices were a long way off when that book went to print. I'm sure they felt that range would...
