Fair enough post sir. Like I said, I was not directing the comment at you. :) Sorry if I post these warnings, I just seem to get frazzled by...
ASE's by a long shot. They are simply more verifiable as to being an ounce of silver by more people, therefor should be at a higher premium.
I am simply saying its curious how on this board not one word is ever mentioned when things that should be positive to prices are changed. Not...
TBH, I hate TPG but a coin like a 16d I would send in just to verify its authentic. It has been said there were I believe 264,000 minted, but over...

Someone bored defacing coins most likely. One cent has NEVER had enough purchasing power for use in those establishments. Not even the first...

You may not think they are attractive, that is your right. However, you have to admit the technical design on a barber coin is about perfect....
