Rare coins? Make em realistically priced. Anyone shelling out five-six figures for any Franklin that ain’t washing dishes and cutting grass should...
Yes I believe they should. Coins are a luxury purchase. And thing is, the human condition can change on a moments notice. I believe most folks...
I collected guitars at one point. Still have a few. To me the aura of having a bass played by Wyzard or Gary Thain hanging on the wall was really...
Welcome, Masterswimmer. Your arithmetic is spot on. And it is a fact, those of us that hold PM's do love the glimmer of silver and gold. I hold a...
