We are a hobby of a bunch of old men who have been collecting coins for quite a few years on average. We are not an excitable bunch, and for the...
I guess I just enjoy the enthusiasm. Us who have seen it all, so to speak, forget how exciting this world can be to new collectors.
I agree wholeheartedly. The absolutely best way I know of gaining "the eye" is simply perusing good auction firms and looking at hundreds,...
Yes and no. Like others said hand carved dies makes condeming ancients hard. OTOH, having tight specs and machine made in many ways makes them...
I think it could be bigger than that. Right now gold is valuable in jewelry because its viewed as superior in performance like not tarnishing. If...
Yep. Centering dimples kind of need to be in the center, ya know? ;)
Interesting timing on tiny greek silver. Two days ago I was going through an old lot of 24 greek silvers I bought a couple of years ago. For some...
Hmm. I was just at a cybersecurity seminar and was told that even with secure connections esnooping and copying of traffic is possible. Oh well....

Oh sure, rub it in. I was driving to Iowa Friday and didn't get back until Sunday nigh so never had a chance to go to the show at all. :(
I agree with everyone else. All three coins really aren't worth owning, and I would not pay $1 a piece for them myself. I bet everyone on this...
Well, you would know the story better than I. This is your pond sir. :) I was just trying to remember the story as best I remembered from a...
I have never been very willing to pay high premiums, but the truth is that when you go to sell, the spread between bars and govt issued bullion...
I would wager more are to be found as well. Sad fact is that many proff sets were purchased and not even really ever looked at. I remember the...
Yeah but...... Posting any political spin of an article, (either side), will quickly become politics. Both parties have assertions, talking...
Lol, I do not think you know the moderators here very well. I know of some members here who could easily afford such a coin, but I am not aware of...
