I don't have one of these, but read quite a bit about Dionysus/panther connection. One of the rare nickle issues from Bactria depict...
Makes a person feel better. I could not see much of the fake, just that it was too red but was a DD, (purportedly). Good thing the good fake coin...
Hmmm, there are always dream coins like a $50 octagonal slug for US coins, or a gold octodrachm from Egypt. On a more realistic scale, I have...
If anyone is interested, I called Whitman and they said one author passed away but they are still discussing whether to print this title (Vol III).
If I answer the OP question vanilla, (no reverse mortgage, but smart idea), then no. No one coin could fulfill my collecting bug. I don't care if...
Wow. Darken the first one up a little and how would anyone tell? If I bought slabbed US coins, it would scare the bejesus out of me. :( Maybe in...
Just a few questions @calcol , if there is something like metal to prevent a SDB from being read, (security concern), wouldn't the same prevent a...
I tend to buy colonials in PMG or PCGS, (mostly PMG). I buy the note, so do not care what the grade is from the TPG, but since the types of notes...
Maybe part of the hobby. Those parts not needing TPG might benefit. I agree it's a major concern. I have seen the better fakes, and entombed in...
Photographs can be tricky. I see gouges, yet when I cross my eyes a little I see them raised. I think you can see either in the photo based upon...
Nvm
Where did you purchase it? I would start there. Dealers usually are more open to buy from customers they sold to.
Lol I am there too. I have "profit" in my pm purchases, but I want the coins/pm more than I want the money. Now, if it spiked very high I MAY be...
I think you caught the low sir. 340 GBP is about the rock bottom for that grade, and have been going up IMHO.
IF anyone really cared about silver or gold. Why should an economy be tied to a commodity? If it were, why gold or silver? Why not the price of...
I do not like slabs much, with my US coins all being unslabbed, (bought them years ago when good coins still survived "in the wild"), but I agree...
I am guessing upgrades went clockwise? Both lower ones very nice.
True, sorry. I was thinking of the Amisos issues since I happened to have one in my hand 10 minutes before I wrote that. You are very correct...
Sure, hold us accountable to how dealers grade. That makes sense. THe same never happened in US coins before TPG ever either, right? Dealers NEVER...
I am sure the TPGs can eventually try to get some RFID chip package, with high res photos, etc to protect high end coins. What I am worried about...
Separate names with a comma.
