Yeah, I know. A lot of you guys like to collect "one" of each coin type. I simply cannot help myself when I see a pretty coin. :) [ATTACH]...
I collect Constantine VII coins because in his reign the first coins I have found with the name Christopher were struck in gold and silver. Well,...
You are like me sir. I feel the exact same way. I loath the idea of trading a precious coin for something as mundane as money, but am somewhat am...
So you think only the introduction of the APE has caused palladium to spike so much? If so, I am not interested at all. What happens when these...
I would say the koalas are less desirable in this way than the pandas. I have bought many older koalas over the years with no premium, so I do not...
I agree. Silver pandas are my answer to someone asking me what would I recommend as a "bullion" coin with highest chance of going up. They really...
Speak for yourself. :) I am a CPA, and have worked on government panels with the IRS. For purchases, the IRS generally accepts contemporaneous...

Rules of thumb like this are worth about as much as you pay for them. How much should be in equities depends a lot more than what you have in...
Worn down is a HUGE giveaway. Great point. If this were a BU coin, I would say maybe its not market acceptable, but it would be possible for it...
It actually proves a point why bullion is so much less volatile right now. Like it or not, a lot of traditional bullion money is from investors...
That is a very debatable point. One, about every other asset is at an historical high point right now. Second, silver and platinum historically...
Must be the same state I live in. I miss being able to bid in them. :(
Of course. I would advise, nay plead with collectors here, to type up instructions and put them in your coin collection area on who to sell to...
I guess I am still where @dougsmit used to be. I do not sell coins. I give them away to people, but I buy coins with play money and consider the...
Mine is stolen from a cheesy star wars line, "there is always another coin". It comforts me when I lose an auction to know in a few weeks another...
