Among the dumb which this seller is wallowing in, is the fact that as a new seller Paypal is going to hold his money until confirmed delivery at...
"Not as readily used" isn't applicable here, really. There is a very finite quantity of early Copper by comparison to IHC's; all are worthy of...
Mind, this does not necessarily guarantee a higher ultimate selling price. What it does is attract those buyers turned off by a near-value opening...
I've been selling on Ebay since 1999 and learned years ago that the 0.99 start is better for ultimate results than higher starting prices. Most...

Ooooh. Thanks - I forgot all about that. Use nothing but pure acetone, available at Home Depot/Lowes/similar. Many "Nail Polish Removers" contain...
An 1881-S Morgan Dollar Proof does not exist. Any respectable dealer would know this, which means this person is not a respectable dealer. It's...
The weight of a ton of evidence - I've probably seen hundreds of different ones over the years, just in the fora where I participate - and the...
Real clips have a way of revealing themselves. First, the curve (if present - straight clips are also possible) will match the radius of the coin....
Looks MD but a pretty sizable spread. I'd hang on to it just as an extreme form of the type. :)
Kinda depends on what type of cleaning was applied, and the idiosyncrasies of this specific lighting setup used on this specific coin. Just...
