I'd be happy to store some of that mess for you. Just sayin...
Thats a good rule, but unfortunately people in the late 1700's and early 1800's didn't know any better or didn't care, which is why a lot of older...
A details coin isn't always a problem coin. If you collect large cents, or any older copper, bust halves, or most early silver dollars, chances...
I wouldn't consider $150 a huge loss. I still think the balancing fulcrum is around $700-800. Now that would be a huge loss, but a more realistic...
Cool video! I like the part where they dip the white hot ingots into the cooling solution and then a second later a guy reaches in with bare hands...
I like Heritage and Denley's the best.
Why is that? Wages aren't tied to the bullion market, unless you're a bullion dealer. I've seen the price of not only fuel, but bullion range from...
Very nice bust half collection! A few more and you'll be able to submit an application to the Bust Half Nut Club! Not an easy feat.
We can carry firearms in CA. They just can't be concealed unless you have a permit to conceal them. Some counties withing the state may be...
I collect a little paper on the side. Some of the Nationals and early Federal issues are nice. But, for the most part I like obsoletes. Some can...
Neat video. I'm hoping to stop in and meet Rick in the next month or so as I'm finding I'm getting to Tucson a lot lately with my daughter...
I feel the same way you do, Hiddendragon. But, I'm fortunate my favorite coin shop doesn't deal with bullion buyers to much extent. They've...
And perhaps more so on demand. Look at the 09 S VDB. Not rare by any standard, yet sells for more than truly rare coins with less than 1/10 the...
The thing is, people who don't know coins won't know them any better when they're slabbed either, meaning the same people who will take advantage...
Everything I've read says if you're not in possession of the silver or gold, you're wasting your time and money.
Put them in your pants pocket and throw them in the wash. Ok, maybe that would be bad. I've also heard of the dryer sheet method working.
Actually, no I don't. Chances are if you bid on an item I'm bidding on, you're going to pay fair price to get it. I don't look for "deals" because...
I think they may be realizing the Euro experiment is a failure. A few dozen diverse countries with differing economies and work ethics all using a...
I couldn't agree more. It seems either a lot of people here have forgotten what it was like when they first started out, or they were born with...
Bottom line...there is risk in every storage option. Houses get robbed every day, but so do banks. Make smart decisions. Thats the best you can...
