Nope, I have no degree in economics, and I have no great track record as an active stock trader. But I do buy groceries for the family, and the...
That's a great analogy - it's cheap entertainment. Except that a "losing" Buffalo nickel is probably still worth at least what you paid for it!...
Sorry, not seeing it. Gold has nearly doubled since the beginning of 2023. We've had some inflation during that time, but prices in general have...
Okay, let me make that "really, really not a currency guy". :rolleyes: Sorry for adding noise to the discussion. Yeah, I was probably...
I'd forgotten about the "duplicate serial numbers" thing. If I remember correctly, each note's worth only face value on its own, but if you come...
Again, you don't even need the peroxide if you're willing to be a bit patient (soak for a few hours or days).
Silver at $41.70 last I checked, which puts 90% minor coinage at just over 30x FV. The pawn shop near work is very excited by all this. They're...
I know there's at least one TPG that will slab acid-dated Buffaloes (details, of course). And restored key dates still trade at a premium to...
I'll still go to my grave trying.
Same thing happened to the paper in my parents' hometown. It's basically a USA Today branch now. Our "local" paper is based in the state's...

I was thinking there was at least one other person here who'd done that, or something close to it. My take: you aren't going to diminish the...
Ooooh boy, I'd be digging under all the couch cushions...
We still subscribe to ours, because they still maintain a reporting staff that does actual investigation. They've rooted out quite a bit of stuff...
You really, really shouldn't. Trust me.
Yeah, I think you can stop worrying about whether you overpaid. :D
Randy, I'm afraid I have bad news for you... [ATTACH] It was a $2500 coin last year this time. Yeah, inflation stinks, but my dollars haven't...
And here I wasted all this time looking for signs of wear on the high points, since I still seem to be good at missing those. I'm with the others,...
I think I actually got invited to be a beta-test user, probably because of some stuff I did with Apple circa 1986-88. I never responded, and never...
Over 35 years, that's about 2% per year, well below inflation, isn't it?
Separate names with a comma.
