I know they exist everywhere, and why, but I am simply reacting to the large, large numbers of scams perpetrated by "coin dealers" ever since I...
What?!?! Some coin dealers are dishonest thieves who will tell a purchaser anything to make a sale? In all seriousness, there ARE a very...
We are all in the same boat. I hope no one here ever takes what I post personally, (well most people here). There have been a few "silver will be...
Yeah, that was it. Sorry I didn't have the title handy, thanks Doug. There was a seller on Ebay a few years ago selling these fairly cheaply,...
I got something like "Gold coins in the Smithsonian", (sorry my library is packed up right now). Its pretty good, going over every date/mm...
I would buy a decent book on the series. Since many people do not wish to become educated who buy these coins, there are some very undervalued dates.
Sounds like the other side of my family sir. I am only 45 but my grandfather fought in WWI, and his father served in the Civil War. That side of...
I agree, since every one had some kind of "issue". Maybe we should just solve it and take all of them off coins and currency. :)
Again, sorry I referenced you Peace. I was only doing it because you said I was always the one to post such things here, effectively saying I was...
And you and Longnine, Inflexion, and others agree with each other and will constantly have similar posts. We know there are different "camps" in...
Sorry man, I have been sick. I didn't have a voice and was in bed most of the weekend. Btw Peace, "dorks"? Really? I was only saying I did not...
Sorry, but I disagree. Maybe he didn't say it, but its known his administration did not enforce the lawful US Supreme Court ruling. Maybe killing...
So I take it you are only asking my favorite US coin? If so, I would say maybe the half dollar. One of only a few denominations made consistently...
I agree with Doug444, go to a coin show if you can. That is where I have bought most of my older gold.
In summary, "these big bad men won't let me be a gazillionaire with my precious silver like I want to be". I bet the author bought a lot of...
I agree with the OP, and have always hated Jackson being honored. He is also the only sitting president to completely ignore a Supreme Court...
I agree its a way above average specimen. The style is much finer, more regal, than almost any I have seen. I don't collect them, but admit...
You are right it has not changed that much. If the photos are relied on, it appears more lifeless now, not unusual. I do like this thread you...
They are not tourist fakes, but I am sure a lot of tourists probably buy them. They would be similar to when the Franklin Mint made medals of the...
I was going to reply like Mike did, but I also know its not that simple. I am aware of the current low interest rate market and how bad this is...
