The only raw gold I'd consider worth more than spot would be specimen gold. I've seen pieces with less than an oz go for tens of thousands of...
The 7070 is a fun type set to build. I wish they made a type set album that was more comprehensive though.
Quite a few, if not the majority, do get through to the public. They don't have the staff to look through billions of coins. However, I'm sure the...
Puts a whole new meaning to the term "laundering money", as thats what you might want to consider in the literal sense.
I'd buy it. But then I collect large cents, and passing that up may result in having to wait decades for another opportunity to buy, if ever....
Based on the pic, no I wouldn't. I wouldn't buy the four I posted at that grade either. But, this is how one can get great deals on CBH coins when...
The others I posted were all AU graded. 2 by NGC, 1 by PCGS, and 1 by ANACS. All show similar surfaces. Don't feel bad, it took me years of...
I think it's close to AU. CBH's aren't graded like modern coins. These were made on hand powered presses, not mechanical machines. Look at the...
I don't see why people are so secretive over what they spend on things. It doesn't take a genius to figure out what a car or house costs and...
All of mine. Otherwise, I'd own a coin and not a collection of coins.
I'd say VF but heavily cleaned. Still a great bustie though. Hard to find these with totally original surfaces.
Capped Bust.
Buffalo nickel.
You could build a junk coin sculpture to pay tribute to your not so junky coins. Every house needs some coin art on display. Guy
Which was my point. If the seller had known what coin he had, and not relied solely on a label, it wouldn't be an issue. One of the main reasons I...
The label shouldn't factor in here. If the collector knew what they had, and not what a piece of plastic said he had, there wouldn't be an issue....
What is "true value" when referring to something that trades at a different rate every hour of every day of the week?
I get those once in a while. I usually register where I found it, then spend it.
Because gold is prettier than lead. I don't think there is one real answer.
A lot of people collect sample slabs. The coin itself is worth five cents, so I suspect a bidding war over a label ensued. Worked out great for...
