Industrial metals are horrible bullion investments, mostly because there's no associated rarity. If you need nickel, buy Canadian 5-cent pieces....
Copper will not be "bullion" worthy until it's priced in ounces, instead of pounds.
Your basis for saying that your coin is a type 2 is an auction that ended on eBay showing a coin that looks "similar to" yours. The biggest...
This is from another thread (http://www.cointalk.com/t223038/): As I said in PM, none of the coins you pictured in your eBay listing are Type 2....
Welcome back. As for slabbed v unslabbed, that's a personal preference, I presume. Are you asking from a speculation/investment standpoint or for...
I *highly* doubt you'd get $75 for a circulated error note, even if it's graded. Without seeing a high resolution shot of the note itself (scan at...

I'm feeling lazy today, so I hope this hasn't been discussed elsewhere. Which TPG is best for grading toned coins? If I submit a toned proof in...
No. Only the Trade Dollars say Trade Dollar on them. The ones that say "One Yen" aren't Trade Dollars, they're yen coins meant for circulation in...
Why did you need to start an entire new thread for this coin upon arrival? http://www.cointalk.com/t227356/ You could just have posted those...

Sold. Please close.
I always thought that the Japan Trade Dollars actually said "Trade Dollar" in the ring.
At some point, I'll need to get over to Home Depot and pick up more acetone, since these have some heavy PVC on them, but not an awful purchase,...
It's somewhat funny, but with the price of bullion being very high, relative to numismatic value, it actually is more profitable to sell bullion...
