Since when aren't they sir? No one invests in currency, that would be retarded. You invest in US treasuries in invest in dollars, German bonds to...
Well I think I answered much of this in my post #21 Lehigh. I simply do not know how much premium may be for surfaces versus color, and I could...
It looks like potentially a die crack to me. It appears raised, which would normally negate PMD. OP this happens when a die cracks, so metal...
I have to disagree. I personally have invested in currencies. When I bought a German bond, I did it because I wanted to accrue Euros since I...
The liability sir is mostly NOT for the price of the other car you hit. Its for the medical bills that may ensue, the other property damage you...
Yeah, I like Carthaginian coins, but I can tell you Tanit, (obverse Goddess), was a real (insert word here). She demanded human sacrifice in times...
I would ask are you a set collector or just buying for type. The 14 is obviously a better coin, I like the luster a lot. If you are collecting a...
And you are a perfect owner of toned coins sir. You collect what you like, what you afford, and what makes you happy. More power to you. You are...

I never meant to offend you or Lehigh or others with my post sir, and I hope you do not take it that way. The OP asked a question, and I just gave...
Not many videos I am aware of man. I basically get through them by whatever I happen to be interested in I read about. Books are boring if you...
Its a good point. People need to know where to get books. If anyone ever has a question please post or PM me. Trust me, i know most sources both...
So have you been to Wat Po Krispy? Its one of my favorites in Bangkok. I have to admit, though, that the Jade Buddha is my favorite. I don't know...
Sorry, but my personal opinion is prices are not reproducible, no standardization or really even a good way to estimate value, I find them to be a...
Jason, I know you are just starting out but want to be serious some day. I would especially caution you that continuing to do so will not end well...
Sorry to say, I don't buy ASE's. Any US mint product I may want I buy on the aftermarket, and the last ASE I bought was a roll of them back when...
My suggestion sir is to wait and educate yourself more before spening too much on coins. "Investment" and collectible coins are two terms that...
