To be fair, Chase was the market maker for silver on Comex. I think they gave this up because of the press. As a market maker, they created the...
One point I would say about your "Nasdaq is King" comment. You can substitute for "risky is king". Riskier investments will always, over long...
I happened to buy from a local dealer a few days ago a group of "stuff" like tenth ounce eagles, world silver for kids, etc. In the lot, he had 8...
Eh, I buy what strikes my fancy. I know tons of people who have been trying to time the stock market the last decade. Almost every time I heard...
Like others say, not a slabbed versus unslabbed issue. It is an issue of some sellers simply liking to troll for idiots on Ebay a lot. I use Ebay...
Yeah, Proof was misleading, but it was implied this meant an average proof struck coin, not impaired. Btw, any comments about grading have...
I agree with Doug. Give me a series I know very well, especially when the group are similar conditions, (all avg circ, all BU, etc), and it takes...
Owning both the 40 and 80, changing a mark would not fool anyone. The 80 is sizable larger, something you know right away once you have handle old...
They are supposed to be perfect to a certain level of magnification. Past that, they have never claimed that every 70 is equal. That is what I am...

I understand this. To me, it is the history, what I can learn, that fascinates me. Having a coin struck by someone or a culture you have never...
You are right on a couple of counts. Yes, it would be a M if it is what I own.
We recognize the reverse of this coin type. You didn't even need to mention Alexandria. ;) I don't know how to type the letter, but agree with @Bob L.
Yes, if you don't mind, they are important I believe. I saw the sticker as well, but didn't understand it. It makes sense it would advertise...
My apologies for any errors on my part @JCro57 for derailing your fine post here. It was not warranted to be posted on your important thread.
The coin is. However, the counterstamp could have value. I believe GWA is a very common one, but the counterstamp itself is the collectible...
What I find curious is the differences between 70's. I wonder why no one in the hobby has been trying to promote what they view as a "70+" since...
I hear you @Parthicus. We do kind of get a little spoiled after we have been around these coins for very long. Just Saturday I went to a local...
