Hi all, I've got the go-ahead to make what is probably my largest single coin buy ever - a 1934-S Peace Dollar in MS64. And the opportunity has...
Ebay has also put themselves in the unfortunate position of being the "nanny" for taking care of lots of ignorant buyers, attempting to take the...
I generally make moves in 10% to 15% at a time - and only with half of the funds at stake (the others I leave in a "set and forget" target date...
It's actually better when your dreams become reality! Nice hit!!! So... How much went to new coins? :)
To all, many thanks! I ended up picking up a very nice complete set of Ikes for $165, all appear to be BU, there's probably a few that might...
I've had a recurring dream ever since I bought my Nevada property in the late 90's. It's a big piece of dirt, but it has a verified wagon trail...
