I rarely post in this section of the forum, but given the topic of discussion - investing in bullion bars, not only as precious metals but also as...
@Pavlos @Rich Beale You've both had you say. At this point, as one of the admins of this forum I strongly suggest that you two take things...
Ehhhh it just takes a while for the echo to bounce around off the walls :D
Fixed that for ya ;)
It's got me stumped. Metal can added to a coin easy enough, added mint marks for example - but it doesn't look like that's what that is - might be...
I did, that was just the echo ;) :D
Simple answer - any action taken in an attempt to remove anything from the coin. For example, anything even as simple as rinsing a coin in water...
Try and think about it like this. As a general rule, to get a Ph. D. you have spend about 18-20 years in school. But even once you've graduated...
Please stay on topic and take the other stuff elsewhere. There are several other threads discussing the PCGS situation - post your comments there.
Ohhhhh that's OK Chris, your heart was in the right place. And just to show you how much we appreciate that, I think Jim and I will have to make...
Ahem ... it's also not a good idea for you to copy said email - and not edit it out yourself out of YOUR post - so that I have to come edit it...
No worries, I learned the virtue of patience many years ago. I just wish I was old as you are so I could have learned as much patience as you have...
To the best of my knowledge all members, including Supporters, have about 1 hr during which they can edit their post. Yes, and they will gladly...
@Insider I'd still like to see an example of what you think a coin struck with misaligned dies looks like. And, your verbal definition of...
And I'm not claiming it does ! What I am saying is if you pick 10 different scenarios, and ask 100 different people which scenarios are ethical...
That's the problem with ethics, everybody has different opinions as to what is and what isn't. Over the years I'll bet there's been a thousand...
I readily agree that the 1939 was not struck with misaligned dies - and said so. But the 1941 coin, if the dies were properly aligned, then the...
I was gonna stay out of this but I just can't help it I feel the need to comment. What's going on here is people are trying to apply their own...
Well then you apparently have a different definition of misaligned dies than I do. Care to tell us what your definition is ? edit - I guess I...
It makes perfect sense. I've tried to explain it many, many times by using this simple illustration - /\/\/\/\/\/\/ - to simulate what luster...
