If you listen to some of the people on some G&S forums, it's b/c: "All paper money is worthless, & is not even real money". Therefore, the only...
Questions: Do you know for sure how PCGS handles chopmarked trade $$? Do they not consider the chopmarks damage, or "altered surfaces"? And would...
The more your coins are worth, the more it may be worth it to send to PCGS, or NGC. Meaning, coins worth roughly $300 & up into the $thousands. If...
I bought a lot of nice Unc Franklins on fee-bay at one point, & got some very decent deals. Just look for listings with really good pics of both...
This is all really scary. I sent 4 gold coins to PCGS recently, insured for $7,000. They got there (& were given a very rough ride by PCGS, but...
That 1939 is of course a Nazi-era coin, & according to my Krause book has that (in)-famous symbol on it. Historical, but personally I might focus...

[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH] The first 2 pics here are the 1927 "Genuine" $20. The last 3, a 1924 $20 graded PCGS...

I sent this gold $20 Saint, & $10 Indian to PCGS ("Collector's Club"). They slabbed the $20 as Genuine (94 - Altered Surface), & the $10 as...
I was struck at how small the pile of gold looked that $95K gets you now. I mean, I'd love to have that amount of gold!, but I was thinking what...
Even PCGS isn't perfect, every time, on every coin, altho they will tell you they are. Once it gets down to 1 or even 2 MS points, +or-, I say...
Can anyone really tell the diff. between a MS69, & a MS70 ASE? I'm guessing the grading companies are the real winners in this--they must make big...
Thanks everybody. Zohar, yes, that dealer does have a lot of interesting shooting medals, but they do seem to be "premium priced" as you say. Then...
[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH] A newbie to this forum, but here are pics of 4 rolls of silver coins I bought about 4-5 years ago: First 2...
1902 Swiss Shooting Medal, Zug Cantonal Shooting Festival. Richter-1678a. Martin-996, Krause-343. There was a nice Unc one on fee-bay for $200,...
