Don't store them around chemicals such as cleaning agents, in wood cabinets, or most cardboards. A steady temp and humidity level is ideal,...
I don't know how it is elsewhere, but here if the IRS audits you, they also audit your CPA. Mine is always extra careful to get things right.
Mostly dry. Four months of humidity, but I keep the inside temp about 70. But, as well as moisture levels, it matters even more where the coins...
I thought I read a few months ago there was a bill that would eliminate taxes on coins with a face value. Did it get lost in the muck, or what? Guy
Great set! I've been working on mine for just a few years now and it's been one of the most enjoyable sets to build. I like the multitude of...
All my sets are in Dansco albums and I've never had them tone. It's usually where the albums are stored that causes toning, unless they're Harris...
Thats an awesome coin! I was looking at one on Heritage about three years ago, but it went for five figures which excluded me from purchasing. Guy
With silver being hot right now I'd look at copper or early nickel coins, as your dollar, or pound will go further. If you're intent on silver, go...

Now theres an idea I would support! And why stop there...a complete re-design of our boring coinage would be nice. Guy
How many ones do you carry on average? I usually have about five, and thats just so I can get stuff from the vending machines at work. In...
75-80...when gold was falling? I thought we were talking rising gold, which took place before 75 and after 80. In those cases we saw the Vietnam...
I remember reading that, and agree with you on some points about what is driving it up now. But, I don't see where you explained what drove it in...
Yes. Please enlighten me. Just don't post links to sites promoting bullion, as thats the not the source of anything factual. LOL! Avocados are a...
I'm all for getting rid of the cent, but only if that legislation includes getting rid of the biggest loser of all, the dollar bill. Guy
That is true, in selective terms like you posted. But in that same time I made over 800% on my investments, if not more, and that wasn't on risky...
Just got this the other day: [ATTACH][ATTACH] Guy
