Now THERE is a collector I resemble. I am just trying to figure out a way to be buried with mine, so I CAN take it with me. :)
Confirmed lost? I wonder how the PO can confirm its lost. Did he ship it registered? No wonder they are going broke. :( Speaking of the PO,...
Thanks for the post Leadfoot! Do you believe the OP auction is a little pricey as well?
That is fair Woody, and I agree many do not trust stocks any longer. The point about a post apocalypto world, though while fair that maybe some...
I agree. Remember roll collecting was popular in the early 60's, and tons of coins around these dates were put away in sulphur containing rolls...
Lol, that's right I forgot you are working on the VERY expensive collection of ex wives. Man, I just have one and I know how pricey that set can...
But no judge can declare the stock in the example I cited as having zero money. Only if there are other creditors can the common stock be worth...
Yeah, I have had similar luck with pawn shops in the past. I don't really try there anymore, even when I was buying US coins. Think of it this...
Sorry sir but I disagree here. Its different than cherry picking in that you are legally buying it, then asking to return afterwards. Sellers have...

That coin ad that introduced you to this hobby was an expensive piece of advertising. Something unaffordable to dealers who sell closer to the...
Its great points Doug bring up. Actually, if someone spent a little time learning more, you could even print up certificates naming the mint on...
Great points, especially the last. If a coin does not capture and enthrall you the moment you see it, it never will. Never buy a coin "just...
Check out Ebay. Take your time and you can get older versions of KM books cheaply. All you want is the coin information, and ideas of relative...
Again sir, who said anything about debt? Absent debt, the shareholders ARE 100% the owner of a firm. So: 1. I never said one word about debt....
Well who said anything about using debt to leverage returns? I never said there was any debt in the above scenario. All that is needed to answer...
Ok, fair enough. :) @treehugger, sorry if I was viewed as a sourpuss. I guess I had just seen too many posts whenever something goes up, and...
The intrinsic value of a stock is the value of the business. Lets start with something close to your heart, a silver miner. Lets say the company...
Fair enough. Maybe you had made these comparison posts in prior years when gold didn't "win" and I missed them. If you wish to review all...
Don't get me wrong, I don't care what a person is like in person, (far from it, I love having an eclectic group of friends). I was just trying to...
Separate names with a comma.
