I bought some from educational coin from their pick groups. I also bought somencoins for the boys. I brought a few k but couldn't get excited...
Not yet sir. Maybe another year or so, but you or anyone else will ever need to call me doctor. :) Just doing it to learn how to learn new things...
FUN usually excludes me as well. Too cold in MN right now. As for the theoretical poll, I think it would be an excellent place to obtain...
Lol, that is like saying I voted with half of all Americans.....no matter the vote you most likely did. :)
Fair points as always Jeff. If they are truly trashed coins and not just "common" coins I object less. FWIW, I think the crud from.HSN and others...
Yes it would. Maybe not cheap, we might argue over who the target population is, but doable. I am about to leave for the FUN show. I bet I could...
My thought exactly. This makes all the difference. Now I would be very willing to purchase, but am not in a market for this coin. However, same...
I voted detrimental. Unless the coins he uses truly are harshly cleaned, numismatically destroyed coins, I object to destroying a coin on purpose...
Let's talk about a coin I am in the market for, an Antony and Cleo Antioch tet. If I knew the piece was tooled, no I would not pay money for it. I...
I am with others. A repair like this is simply tooling. While smoothing is a continuum which I can be comfortable at a certain point, tooling is...
No, not really. I think they may let some local dealers fill in on Sunday, (not sure if FUN does, but some other shows do), but for the most part...
I wonder if there is a BU "lowball" market. Seems easy enough, buy ASE's for melt, put in bag, shake vigorously, sell, rinse and repeat.
Um, I think its sarcasm Chris. ;)
Limited edition of 10,000 "perfect" coins. Boy, MS70's sure are rare, ain't they?
I have to agree with others. Its as bad as a British Commonwealth coin, one side a complete throwaway.
They have name badges outside that everyone needs to fill out and wear in order to access the bourse. They are all stick on ones, but I imagine if...
It is a good idea and I will too. However, I usually do not look at name badges, and FUN is huge, so still not a great chance of seeing each other.
Pt has a very high buy/sell spread. If I could find it fairly close to spot, I would love to buy more. Hard to find, and when you find it simply...
IMHO, of course raw there will be more fakes. However, compare slabbed coins versus ones in flips from good dealers and I bet the ratio is...
Any ancient collector, (yes even slabbed ancients), have fakes in their collection. Accept it as part of the hobby and try your best to buy from...
