I think if I was in a business and part of my revenue stream was the result of proprietary techniques, I'd be reluctant to share them. I don't...
Try sending it to DGS if you are worried about the cleaning. I think they will slab it instead of body bagging it.
What's even more amazing than the fact that they wouldn't sell the bags is the fact that they didn't have you arrested for stealing coins out of...
I don't think Congress wants to get rid of the cent coin because it would just be another admission of the inflation that they continue to deny in...
I agree that you are boggled.
I think 90% is a pretty good working number for illiteracy in the middle ages since about that percentage of the population were probably serfs or...
I like some of the gold commemoratives from the 80s such as the 87 constitution and 88 olympic because the designs are underrated in my opinion....
It seems less so every day. Practically every problem in the economy today stems from the fact that we do not have a permanent money supply....
I think the simple ASE is undervalued. I think it's one of the best coin designs ever produced, but aside from that, there are two important...
Computers have advanced now - now it will work. :whistle: But on a serious note, advances in programming and optical equipment might make it...

I think it's a bit closed-minded to presume that the images on the coins can only be depictions of UFO and nothing else. I am not familiar with...
I think that as long as different coin series, years, and mints are graded using the same 70 point scale, everyone will have to live with a little...
I can only think of two possibilities. 1. The felt the toning was artificial, or 2. It was close to the end of the year and they were...
They all look pretty identifiable to me. What are people thinking when they see these things and go nuts?
I'm going to go way out on a limb here and say there aren't any UFOs and the images on the coins are representations of something else.
The coins look very familiar. Have these been displayed here before?
I agree EF-cleaned for the half cent. I don't know if cleaning is much of an issue with coins that old because by now nearly all of them have...
Thanks for pointing that out. Grading has a long way to go to become a science. It's as if the length of a foot changed from year to year.
Someday I plan to attend since it's close enough, but not this month. :(
