If I am buying a slabbed coin -- even bullion -- I want to know if it's the actual coin. Because to be honest, I have since found out that either...
Good catch, too, B21....I just bought a modern bullion coin in a slab and I told the seller that since my serial number did not match they should...
Good catch, Santini...I didn't see that there was a Reserve that wasn't met. I'm surprised it didn't get sold or the bid higher. I would have...
Yeah, $3,250 a few days ago....and for a PCGS !!...
Do not pay up for the FS or ER designations.

Gotcha....then why did they apparently get hot in the early-2000's ? There was also a great thread over at CU talking about 1 guy showing how a...
MD, I think you and I are in agreement. You probably bid on stuff that is reasonably priced. I am seeing stuff -- some MSDs, some Saints -- where...
MD, remember this: I am talking about low-balling on coins that have REPEATEDLY not gotten offers for weeks or months because the seller has a...
I've learned that people selling on Ebay are not only bad with pictures but some very good. I see stuff that has the lighting angled such that...
Yeah, but alot of these sellers are amateurs and jerks, listing the same piece for months without any activity. I see it all the time with $20...
McBlzr, can you tell the difference between the normal and Ultra Cameo versions of the Reverse Proof ? I love my coin but the blackness of the...
