IMO MS-70 and PF-70 coins will NOT do well on Teletrade, and your research seem to confirm that. Why? Because people who frequent Teletrade are...
Wow, just read back over this thread. Some of the words used were esoteric. (I know a big word or two also.) :D Re-imaging my coins. Started...
Well, it's Federal property unless they sold it to the city. Part of the problem is that quite a few of the buildings on the north part of the...
Pretty good. You can see the door and windows in the portico. Don't buy a War Nickel if you can't see them.
mrbrklyn, what the latest on the status of Governors Island? Last I heard no one bought it. Initial asking price I think was $500,000,000. Do I...
A 1921 Peace dollar in MS-64 has a Bid listing of $780 in the greysheet. For a coin of that value I wouldn't even consider buying it unless it was...

I would find it VERY interesting if someone could continually take an image, resize it to 200% and make it look good. Everytime I try it starts to...

My thinking about platinum (or any bullion) as an investment. Right now many people are using bullion as a hedge against the stock market and...
If you don't have a subscription to Coin World, I suggest you consider that. I believe it's in the $40-50 range for a year.
I prefer this site because the posts pretty much stick with coin topics. Yeh, there is a bunch of social chatter, but generally only after a topic...
There was an article recently in Coin World about 6 coin store robberies in Calif. Is it possible that this could be part of that loot?
D'oh! Amazing how the easy solution often eludes me.
Thanks for the info, but I couldn't come up with anything. Just Carl, probably the best suggestion. I'll take it to the Whitman show in...
I don't know why you'd think this wasn't a legit listing :whistle: The seller's been a member of eBay for a whole day. The listing is for 3 days...
Separate names with a comma.
