That bezel and chain are looking more like brass in the new photos, but still might be worth a quick test.
For analysis, right?
Gold's density: 19.32 Tungsten's density: 19.25 to 19.3 (sources vary) If you're up against people whose technique is enough better than mine to...
If you're trading silver for coins, what else could it be but a "barter exchange"?
If I were shelling out for a 100oz gold bar, it'd be "trust, but VERIFY."
My other concern with bigger bars is that it's harder to verify them. With a large silver bar, there's a lot more room to work with if you want to...
Sure looks reversed to me. "MUИU ƧUIЯU⅃ꟼ Ǝ"
I don't know much about tax law, but what I do know is that common sense is not applicable. I think in a barter exchange it's accounted as if you...
I can't tell whether this is a fake -- all proof Trade dollars look funny to me. But the broken "L" would surely have been noted by specialists in...
Yeah, I still wonder exactly how they get away with the fees-on-taxes bit. Guess there aren't any laws against setting fees to whatever the market...
Are you sure that's not just strike doubling? I see lots of "flat and shelf-like" and no "notching" at all...?
Huh. I didn't know they were headquartered in Lancaster (my stomping grounds for a brief period in the mid-90s). It's a good time to be Amish....
Good choice. Cat hairs are generally finer than human hairs. :angelic:
"New Old Stock", maybe...?
And that's how you manage to tank the USD and equities and PMs simultaneously. Achievement unlocked!
Look at the weights listed for 1892-1964 dimes. Why are they 1% higher than the 2.5g listed in the Red Book? Look at the weights for Barber and...
It no longer does. As of a moment ago, palladium was at $1003, platinum was at $986. Less than a 2% difference.
Better yet, if you want to compare supply, look at platinum. 170 tons per year vs. 3000+ tons per year for gold, but platinum's price is one third...
I'm reminded of a gold eagle I bought in a bezel that was, to my eye, really ugly. But it was clearly hallmarked 14k. I found a dealer at a show...
That's probably most likely, but it won't hurt to check. Don't forget to start with a magnet test, too!
