I've recently ordered from Alaska coin exchange also with nice results. Fair prices, accurate grading, reasonable shipping, and good service are...
Interesting stuff. If they had only taught this in history class, it would've been much easier to stay awake. By the way, I also read that many of...
I'm still not convinced. It sounds like another way to empty out the overfilled [with presidential dollars] bank vaults.:secret:
I think as long as you are knowledgable in what you are buying, it is a great place to buy common date coins, especially bullion priced silver.
I guess I really don't care what people do to their own coins. It just seems immoral to sell a cleaned coin without disclosing it. The local coin...
