Weird. I thought these anepigraphic coins struck in a city when the Imperial family was actually in the city visiting. I guess "visiting" Rome was...
Not talking about ancients, but fake bullion. I can usually get better buys locally for bullion and have a local money back guarantee if fake.
Except we have a Federal Law making any object like this illegal. If we do not try to enforce it, do you think anyone else in the world will? I...
I was going to say the same thing. Email Amazon the 1978 Hobby Protection Act makes this a blatantly illegal item to be sold in the US.
Not sure I would say Ebay is the way to go........ I have received 1 fake from reliable auction firms and they promptly refunded my money. On...
To paraphrase, :) It depends on the collector. Doug dislikes test cuts, but not as much as holes. I can put up with a small hole made in antiquity...
That is where I was at, but like @Gilbert its always a weird series for me to grade.
Lol, we all do that. I would never want to know how many typos I have typed here on CT. I wasn't trying to be "smart" or call you out on it, just...
But didn't the emperor sit for the busts that were then sent out to mints to make coins? I would say you can judge a coin based on how realistic...
You mean the 1838 O?
It was the Wayfair Supreme Court case that required this. Horrible decision overturning Quill. Worst part is Ebay charges sales tax on goods not...
Wow, didn't see the colorized announcement. Make me sad. Next we will be seeing banjo shaped coins, etc. I would love something like Austria does...
I would MOSTLY agree sir. However, there are weird interplays between the two. Its not all black and white. Let's say silver is worth $10. Common...
If you went to sell that as a 62 it would get cherrypicked pretty quickly. I believe that is an undergrade ignoring the color.
Yes, I bet many men here feel the same, daydreaming their wife was into coins and such like our favorite here @TIF . :)
I know what you mean. I have had dealers try that to me. One took a coin I found in his "pick bucket" and casually slid it into his pocket when I...
Yeah, but is that why you buy a red book? While I never understood once a year purchases, its nice to have an "all in one" book of US coins. Of...
Plus the whole undervaluing rarities and overvaluing very common coins endemic in all catalog prices. I have written about this and why...
Heck, I find questions I have from old posts on CT all of the time. The embarrassing ones are the ones where I answered them 8 years ago but...
Depends on what he is into. Someone into early US history you can get one or two nice Continental Currency's. I like the group idea. One each...
Separate names with a comma.
