Never ceases to amaze me why people would buy expensive coins on Ebay. I am not talking a great deal, but just a regular price. Hmmm, do I want to...
I am not disagreeing with you Doug, just asking questions. Given the fact Spock pointed out that .999 or .9999 is recent, does anyone have any...
http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/rsc/anonymous/i.html Most anonymous silver is Roma head. I am not sure the background on the wings, though. I do...
I agree that gold "darkens", that is the best description I can think of. I have tried searching, anyone ever hear of analysis of the toned...
Ok, sorry, I thought "Frequently Asked Questions" meant FAQ. Could there be a post there someday, under Frequently Asked Questions, regarding...
Ok, my bad I guess. I see posts about: 1. To slab or not to slab 2. 70 point Sheldon system 3. Missing mintmarks 4. Is my 1943 cent for real...
I agree they can be on any gold coin, and have seen them on all, but it just appears to me, and maybe just me, more frequent on the Pandas. When I...

Are these really Mercury? Mercury I thought had wings on his heals, I have always heard the dime made 1916 to 1945 had wings on his cap to signify...
Yeah, love tokens are very interesting, but unfortunately destroys most numismatic value of the coin. As it is unless the engraved design on the...
Agreed. I think these could be some very nice, interesting coins. I think they would be a hit with collectors since many of us are getting...
Could one of the best ones get stickied? I think that would help a lot. Many readers never search on something like that, it would be great to...
But without a TPG slab of "perfect" its harder for the shysters to charge a huge price. That is what I was referring to. They market these as...
Coinsnake, I understand your concerns this thread has taken. I think it gets down to the fact may people cannot see the difference easily between...
I wasn't trying to say anything about people who simply wish to have 70 graded coins. My point is the non collectors who so many of these are...
Hammer at an auction does not matter, the dealer made a good buy. If not 2325 from you, he would have got it from someone else. Gorgeous coin,...
