I would very strongly warn you against this. It will not only be "your" tax bracket, but much likely a higher one since it will be included as...
I would say this is the traditional definition. Lately Pre 64 coinage has been called classic, but historically it refers to these designs.
Well the eye appeal with this toned coin I think you would be a little biased. :) I agree with you, I just thought that the strike would count for...
To quote from the below listed source: "The slower a reaction, the greater the kinetic stability. " This is what I was referring to. Thanks for...
Ok, you guys know best what grades are nowadays. I know I sounded like a jerk, but I guess I am just used to that coin being graded lower due to...
I don't know them, sorry. Maybe others do. I was hoping you would say Frank Robinson, CNG, Berk, Pegasus, etc. lol. In ancients the dealer is...
Who is the dealer? You could PM me or Doug Smith or others and ask an opinion of him. Most dealers are around for decades. Please do not worry...
I don't see the problem with the fields really. As far as slabbing it, I don't think it adds value. Education is the key, as well as the guarantee...
I see nothing wrong with the coin based on photos. I would never pay that kind of money unless it was a good dealer which I assume it is. Did it...
Nice colors, but man the strike. I hate to be a jerk but this is what is called a 65 nowadays? I mean both sides are weak, I thought TPG'ers were...
In contrast to the OP, I see many more collectors enter the hobby due to the internet. I know I lost a lot of interest but then when I was able to...
No guarantee but they sure have a lot longer and better track record than anything else. As for might as well collect the 70's, well people...
http://www.galmarley.com/FAQs_pages/production_consumption_faqs.htm Shows that a little more than 10% of gold consumption per year is...
I must be old or something. Chop marks used to ALWAYS lower a coins value. They are damage. Yes, I like them too somewhat as I think they make the...
Fair enough that you say the process is "slow enough", but the color is not just from the sulphur reaction, but also due to trace other compounds...
MS70 coins, like others have said, are dangerous for the hobby due to the fact many people will get burned when they learn they have bought...
I wouldn't dream of blaming any current resident of any building. I blame all of them who have sat there for at least 20 years, and their buddies...
Putting them near old sulphur paper in an enclosed environment, and warming it up, also works well. Wetting the coin/paper also speeds up the...
10% buyers fee, move the decimal, 15% move the decimal plus half, 20% move the decimal and double it. :)
We are probably talking about different things. On Ebay they sell what looks to be old bridle parts dug up in Eastern Europe as "Celtic ring...
