There's a lot of truth in that. We'll see. Personally, I'll be surprised if the owner(s) of the one now "out there" receive any damage remedy....
So riddle me this... any guesses as to what the market value will be of these little puppies should they become available ? :) Any conjecture as...
Perhaps... but the buyer certainly knew that there would be one heck of a fight by the claimants for the other known pieces. Guv'mint can say...
I would think not. He didn't buy it from the government. He bought it at auction, and the consignor was the owner, not los federales. At least...
There's a big difference between "How many commems should we have ?" and "Should we have a law restricting how many we can have ?". Absurd law....
Yes... that's Dahlonega.
There's a lot of truth in there. And since folks often make decisions not from facts, but what they think are facts, then rumors, fuzziness, and...
Perhaps another point of clarification : should we distinguish "overgraded" from "low end for the grade" ? Let's define "overgraded" as "off by...
Again, my concern is one of extent. I agree qualitatively, but disagree quantitatively. i.e. "for every AU indian quarter eagle ... there's a MS...
You betcha. Yes, I do largely agree. I agree with the OP to an certain extent. The key word throughout this thread is extent. Yes, there is a...
Agreed. That's Hard Math, and hard to dispute. And here's a key notion... "estimated probability of the upgrade" requires a great deal of...

Widespread agreement on that ! One thing to consider - we're all learning. Even the best say they're still learning. So their is no point at...
I feel it's more accurate to say the vast majority of slabbed coins will be over-graded or correctly graded... only a small portion will be...
I told my wife, I earn the money, I can spend it on what I want to. After a while, she joined me at a show. I had been working with $2.5 Indians...
1921 Morgans are nothing special. Why ? Ultra-high mintage. Since a dollar has more silver than any other coin, and they made so many $1s in...
Which means Newcomb and Noyes are psychics, right ? :D
And also some on the reverse - on the "olive branch" leg between the shield and talon, and on the "arrows" talon.
Yep. Aren't all AirTites the same outside diameter regardless of contents ? If so, Dansco need only make a generic AirTite album, and peeps can...
Right-o. Sometimes, I think the TPGs allow some coins to to jump the Great Divide between circ and uncirc - high-end AU coins are market graded...
