Well, a fifty-year-old memory is practically a made-up story, you know? I won't testify to my memory of what the coin I dug actually looked like....
1977 saw me graduate high school, and run like hell from the harsh reality that was mid-70's Cleveland straight into the Army. Coins were the...
Half a century ago, a young boy who was utterly obsessed with Matchbox cars was playing Civil Engineer in his steep front yard. He had the full...
Yeah, it kinda negated my interest in offering an opinion; I'll just stick to "what he said." :)
Your consistency makes you a darn good grader.

Insider, the only problem with that is ICG is popularly regarded as near-third-world by the collecting community. You can't get a decent price...
Your best bet for the bullion is to wait until gold catches up, as their worth derives greatly from the price of raw gold. You're obviously in...
Don't let the fact that we occasionally disagree ever convince you that I don't have the greatest of admiration for your willingness to be the guy...
