If you took a bunch of nickels to a refiner, you'd actually lose money on them. Why? Because for one, just finding a refiner willing to separate...
Makes me wonder if the government isn't in violation of it's own laws when they themselves trade tax credits for services. Thats bartering in the...
Well said, Krispy. In simplest form, art is subjective. I for one wouldn't pay $5 for an original Picasso, however. :D Guy
I guess that would be ok, just as long as it isn't a credit card set-up. I've lived quite nicely without credit cards and plan to do so until I...
A cashless system would work great for businesses and banks, but lousy for everyone else. How would I pay the neighbor that mows my lawn, or buy...

I didn't realize there was a shortage. The mint has surpassed all bullion sale records, so to me that just means the demand is growing faster than...
Well, there's also the older saying about give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach him to fish and he eats every day. Education trumps the...
If he's too busy to change the prices he should have never put prices on them in the first place. Any dealer with any experience at any level...
No, I'm not against slabs at all. In fact I own quite a few slabbed coins. I guess my point was, the OP was looking to get the best merc dimes...
You couldn't be more wrong, but it seems a moot point. Besides, it's not about the coin being "perfect". The gimmicky aspect lies in the fact...
Separate names with a comma.
