No sense arguing, its clear he has never dealt with Finance in his life since he assumes companies keep billions in FRN's laying around, and does...
I agree with Gao. Sixth century follis or 40 nummi. From the pic of the obverse I do not think it will rever be identifiable as to emperor unless...
All I will say is if I wish to hold British pounds I would not be so stupid as to hold notes with no interest, I would be smart about it and buy...
I have stated it like 4 times now, and so has Cloud. US treasuries are the majority of US dollars in the world, I simply do not know how to...
Cool, thanks for the update. I had seen coins of both, but since weren't interested in them I guess I never paid attention to how much they went...
Are they? I could have sworn I have seen them for sale, just never knew they were supposed to be scarce.

Great pickup. Its surprising how many books like this are useful. I have a Byzantine attribution guide published 30 years ago I find most helpful....
I guess I am in a minority. I understand the prices on these shows are high, but so are their costs. Do you know what? Most stuff you buy in...
Good news! Best of luck on the grades.
Personally I wouldn't worry so much about "investment" at 14. I know your head is in the right place, but you have plenty of years for that. I...
