The triangle within a circle is the mintmark of Ai Khanoum. This coin is interesting to me, since it is the prototype to a very long series of...
I am close, but I learned: BU = 60-62 Select/Choice BU = 63-64 Gem BU = 65-66 Superb Gem BU = 67+ I think this came from ANA grading standards...
It's not a one way street. I am a cash buyer of odd things like 1 gram palladium, 1/20th ounce pieces, etc. as well as St Gaudens and other...
Nice looking product, but I don't know.
I will go with NT. I have seen such coins come out of original hoards in a humid but sulfur poor environments. Same environment but sulfur rich...
I got what you meant, but my point is if I were a collector for a rarer Morgan date, and what was offered looked very much out of the ordinary, I...
All morgans are heavily faked. If you are going to buy a Morgan over $100 and don't know what you are doing, you should buy certified. Better...
I think you need to look at it a little differently. As ounces go up, the premium always goes down per ounce. The premium over spot really is a...
Very fair sir. Personally, I would be surprised if the later dates hold. It seems very late, stepping all over Seleucid, Parthian, and other...

Um, 20% of S&P are zombies? They are making no profit over the last decade? Name them. Please inform us of DATA, NAMES, not sitting in your mom's...
Sounds like they wherever you are having your convention.
I don't know man, just reacting to the coin pic. I don't know the circumstances around its issuance. Usually there is a huge hump at the back of...
My wife is from Thailand, and I know Indian elephants fairly well, and the differences between them and African. Sure looks like an African...
Not into the mints as much on these, (or any ancient coins really). However, aren't Sasanian coins noted for occasionally having more than one...
I have updated the list with everyones comments I believe.
Actually, I read that as the opposite. He is telling people to NOT take all of their money and buy $35-$40 silver, but to dollar cost average...
Fair point about physical premiums surge when market prices drop. That is why I say to buy paper until physical premiums go down. Same can be...
True, with and without a line underneath. The line is rarer. ;) The scarce copper-nickel pieces from Bactria have a leopard since that animal was...
