I don't think as much junk silver gets melted as we think. It's true a lot of it changed hands as bullion and traded as such, but in reality most...
Thats quite a feat. I'm a Morgan man myself but haven't completed any sets or subsets in the series yet. Someday :) Guy~
By this do you mean actually a one coin per date set or a full date and mintmark set? Either way it's an accomplishment to be proud of, but just...
All your points seem valid enough for investors. I would think though that as an investor you would come into the coin market when prices are weak...
Meeting people from CT...never done it yet. I live close to quite a few of them but just never have the time to make it to shows or commit to the...
I don't have a favorite single coin. Or even a favorite type really. My favorite collecting area is old large coppers, though. Guy~

And we wonder why this country is broke. Anyways, it seems like this case will never be over with. Guy~
You didn't specify what type of engineer, so I had to vote yes, although I'm a locomotive engineer (the guy that drives the trains) and not a...
Maybe AU details cleaned? Guy~
I agree. I just joined a coin club not long ago and had the same concerns as the op in not being able to attend regularly. They assured me not...
Mine too. Happy holidays! Guy~
I suppose you couldn't go wrong with that auction for the unpictured 65FBL half if all you care about is a stated grade in plastic. But, if you...
I store mine in a safe. The best way to secure a home safe isn't by buying the most expensive or largest safe, it's making sure a would-be robber...
The few I have were all GE, whatever that means, but I didn't see any on your chart anyways. Guy~
Good to see you're still with us Jack. Been quiet around here without you. Guy~
