I love both types. I especially love the crazy Commodus coin. This effectively is what got him killed, his psychotic belief he was the demi-god...
I wish I could sir, but I doubt it. Too many large projects this summer. I will take a raincheck and try to be there next year though. :) I love...
Like most other modern issues, there will be hype and massively overpriced early issues on Ebay and elsewhere. If I would make it to the ANA I...
I agree. They do not look like mine, which are 60's and 70's vintage I believe. Great for storing 5000 wheat cents, (obviously), but also nice to...
Josh, if you are trying to get going as a dealer stick to the accepted TPGs. As a new dealer you would never have the leverage to try to promote...
Another aspect to consider is some of us are "intelligent accumulators". In ancient coins, hoards hit the market, get dispersed, and then the coin...

Common Ching cash. Looks authentic, but VG grade. In bulk these go for as little as $.20 each. I agree, though, that if you like it $3 is nothing....
Is it really thin? I almost see an Ummayid denar there if you rotated it a quarter turn.If its not really thin, its not islamic silver, but could...
I agree. Btw, you do not need to be a financial planner to have an informed opinion on macroeconomic events. I passed the CFP exam years ago, and...
Hmmm, Amanda might have said it, but its not a new term. Heck, I heard the Hunt Brother and NFA catalogs described as coin porn in the 80's. :)
I think most on CT wouldn't sir, but you cannot deny our culture's inherent disdain and lack of understanding of cultures foreign to us. Heck,...
I have never heard that. Yes, the Chinese liked the 8 reales, due to their own coinage being underweight and extensively counterfeited. Chinese...
Hopefully he is busy working a job and too busy to participate here. He is a young man who needs to learn the value of a hard week's work. I...
