Interesting type. Care to share more?
I like the phrase "appealing reverse". Applies a few ways here. :)
Anecdotally I have seen the same, (not active in the market). I see the same for premiums overall. Usually happens in any type of "panic", market...
Eh, its there. Why wouldn't it be? Way worst to ever find out its not there, and like a few weeks of spending for the current government anyway....
I would agree on the 6th if you are serious about the series, but older books for just a small amount of money, say $20, are good too. I love his...
I agree it may ruin the hobby how some pursue it. Relying solely on expertise of other unnamed people may have to go away, and you might have to...
I went down that path too, rebelling at the "have to fill every whole someone else made" mentality. However, about 20 some years ago discovered no...
I consider that just as valid. Given x financial limits, you can still have holy grails. Examples would be you can only afford a vg 1916d dime,...
LOTS of articles targeted at beginners or those who do not know the hobby and are basically clickbait. Hang around here, read posts here, and you...
Its all dependent on what interest you. If you collect lincoln cents, your holy grail could be a 1943 copper or 1944 steel cent, then again it...
If you like older bills from circulation, I find $100s the most common denomination to find. The reason is many people keep these for a long time...
Yeah, I have a friend from the ancient coin club who is one of the world's experts in coins of Alexander the Great. He is writing the section on...
My thoughts actually. In commodities you always have to remember its price is also strongly tied to the strength of your currency you are pricing...
You are more patient than I am Jim. Non-dividend paying stocks I might give a few years but then I might look to trim unless I think its a...
The PM pumpers have been around since I have been around coins, (mid 1970's). Back then mainly directed mailings and magazine ads. Then late night...
It was not a great alloy for striking coins, and improper mixing is evident in most coins of the era as evidenced by streaking in the toning, so...
Seems like a lot of Byzantine coins from this era are attributed as Arab Byzantine. OP, I would say the one you posted is the nicest and most...
Yeah, kind of by design. They were geared for newer members, and if you climbed the knowledge ladder you simply outgrew it, like a lot of beginner...
Not an expert in these either, (sounds like @okbustchaser is), but the 9 and 4 in the date immediately looked fishy. Couple that with his...
My prediction is LOTS of people will be unpleasantly surprised in the next few years when the IRS deploys these new agents and they get around to...
Separate names with a comma.
