It looks like a legit cud to me. But, cuds do seem to be a lot more common on copies - I've seen them show up on counterfeit Morgan's. Are Cuban...
I've seen those in dealer junk bins and melt bins for pretty close to spot. Who really buys those, I wonder?
Let's get the thread back on track... Yesterday I picked up a big pile of coins from a bullion dealer who didn't have any knowledge of foreign...
So, the bullion dealer negotiated a bit, but accepted my 2nd offer. I went $80 for a good selection of silver (including the Cuban piece, an...
Anyone heard an update on this? I have a pendant made from Atocha silver and would love to pick up some more...
Hmm. I wonder how hard it would be to get a storage unit on the ground floor and sink a safe into the slab... Get a bunch of ratty boxes full of...
If an item has a denomination, then I would classify it as a coin. That's the bright line between a medal and a coin. Size / weight / composition...

I recently purchased a 1932 George Washington medal, but I don't think there's an appropriate forum to post about it. Where does everyone else...
I share your fascination with the series. A while back I made a powerpoint about the different types and presented it at several local coin club...

I recently came across a set of 0.999 fine silver restrikes made in various sizes by the Casa de Moneda. Any idea what the mintage numbers on...
Nope. And my landlord would probably be a bit upset if I drilled into the slab. :rollling: I do have some hefty safes, but I want some off-site...
At at least one BoA location, they added a vault in an area where they had unused office space. If there are 20+ people calling daily, then it...
