Why slabbed at all? Most collectors should be able to grade circulated examples themselves easily. If not, practice practice practice. Its a skill...
I think they gave a pass because its a lustrous, pretty coin. Btw, I would not disagree with you paying a premium BU, its very pretty. Even with...
I would personally kind of like the coin at $66. It is a very pretty 63, if one can overlook the dings. No way for $265. :(
I would say that would be ther other option if they didn't give it a grade Ruben. I was debating the same, but thought they would deduct and net...
Sure, make liars out of all of us! :)
I simply thought those who bought physical PM, who by definition would be concerned about the robberies, could also be interested in how their...
For new silver like the government would mint, I would assum they pay full price for the silver, plus a fee to make it a blank, plus their own...
We've had this thread less than a month. I thought it was illustrating another danger of physical PM ownership, which is what I thought we were...
Here is another danger to people who buy bullion. http://www.startribune.com/business/150173425.html ""Many gold coin salesmen have criminal...
Lol. Its usually the other way. If PM is up, the dealer tells you its hot and going up further if buying, he tells you its oversold and coming...
It is. Then you have loudmouths like me who only have a SDB as an option, lol. I suppose my books would be worth something if someone...
I agree. A mixed grading set will show you a little, but a dedicated grading set will be more influential in yoru learning. Its simply easier to...
I hear you, but I am half native American, (ancestors were on the Trail of Tears), and I still have Andrew Jacksons face on the $20. What is the...
Throughout history, PM only has value if there is somewhere to escape TO. When the mongols were surrounding Samarkand I doubt anyone got out...
There probably is but most people don't think about it. I know it SOUNDS like a lot of money, but even 200k worth of coins can literally be a...
They never have sir to my knowledge. At least of modern coins, the old ones simply stay in circulation until kept as a collectible. I believe you...
Why would they get a discount to the market? PM is not like going to a wholesaler and getting a price break on quantity. The price of PM is the...
Lord I apologize..and be with the little pygmy people in New Guinea, Amen.
Great! Glad to hear it. I just wanted to post about it just in case, and also in case anyone else here was going to do the same. Sounds like...
Yes sir, its a pretty coin. It will be interesting to see what the TPG said. :)
