I'm only 76 BUT I've treated myself badly in the past. Worst was 30+ years of smoking. But it's been almost 25 years since I quit. I think my...
I know about Numismedia. Just checking if there are other sites/publications that are as good or better.
I only encounter mules with my $1 small-size currency collection. My references for those bills avoid characterizing them as errors or varieties...
~95% of my coins are slabbed so grading is not an issue, i.e., I'm going with the opinions of PCGS and NGC. Depending on what the bottom line is...
