I was planning on leaving tonight for next march, but the darn plutonium supplies are getting low, and we ain't getting too many thunderstorms...
For many people, ASEs are worth the extra premium, because they are so widely recognized. I bought generic 1 oz silver rounds a few years back. I...
I've been looking at modern commems for investment purposes for a while now. I really doubt they will ever be a huge hit with collectors, unless...
If it continues to bother you, you can finally get the circulation finish ones on ebay for a reasonable price now. I said I wouldn't, but I caved...
I have to agree with you, sgiorgis. I completed my Franklin half collection a few years ago. It was one of the most fun series to complete, I...
My take on this is it is zinc plated from a junior high science experiment. It is a thin enough plating that if you heat it over a gas flame, the...

I can't argue with your actions at all, Gary. I'm hoping to raise my children to appreciate coins, as well as my inheritance. If I fail, I may...
Not knocking down the Silver Eagles, they are a beautiful coin, but I'm just kind of bored with them. I think Canada has something here. A new...
Yeah, Mercury was an ancient god with wings on her FEET. If I was a god I'd prefer the wings in a lot of other places. Could you imagine trying to...
