My personal opinion is that if the intent is to leave something of value to the next generation, and you've already decided that coins are the way...
Never mind... I'm pretty convinced the coins are cleaned, and the company is to be avoided.
I was looking at a few circulated Barber halves in Numistrust Corporation holders. They appeared to be graded properly, but some looked cleaned....
Can someone post a picture or scan of the Cherios Sac? While I've heard about them, I don't think I've ever seen what all the fuss is about or...
I agree that the commodity price tracking comments belong in the General Discussion forum. Bullion coin discussions can stay in the existing coin...
No. Bullion coins are just another denomination/type of coin. There are enough forums already to click through. As long as people identify the...
I bought a few of these about a year ago, both half penny and penny. My recollection was that all of them were probably F/VF/EF and priced...
I guess it is unacceptable to have money that is actually WORTH something anymore. Got to get rid of that stuff before anyone gets any weird...

I would completely avoid pool accounts. You don't own silver. You own someone elses promise to reimburse you for the price rise in silver....
You aren't crazy. Prices sometimes move much more than anyone can possibly imagine ahead of time, and this really really really looks like it...
You beat the system so far.:hail: If there is something you really want that you don't have, it might be a good idea to buy soon. I'm seeing...
Interestingly, I look at it as being just the opposite. Since I'm probably 75% investor and 25% collector, I can buy what I like whenever it is...
I greatly appreciate the service provided by the major grading companies. It is enormously beneficial to someone like me to be able to buy a coin...
Some silver analysts believe Buffett's silver has already returned to the market in the form of leases. These transactions will eventually be...
I noticed that over the weekend, Scott Travers was on the news. He is putting several rare coins into circulation in New York City by spending...
Keeping in mind that my grading skills are weak, my opinion from the slabs I've seen is that PCI grades seem to be more accurate for circulated...
