Funny, when silver was spiking and people wished to cash in on pm, I sure saw a lot of dealers being sought out to sell to. So much so that quite...
I buy most of my coins from dealers I know of. Dealers provide a lot of services to the industry: 1.For sellers, provide a liquid market to get...
I agree with large lots on Ebay for more common coins. Also, try going to larger coin shows in your area. Most areas have at least one world coin...
Sounds like there is a market for "slab tags", making sure the plastic stays pristine. Yeah, I know, it sounds far fetched, but they sell slab...
I scratch the heck out of my slabs, (with a hammer). I bet you that one could experiment with various rubbing compounds and find something that...
The Gold Coins books is just a hair over $40 here: http://www.abebooks.com/book-search/isbn/9780794822545/page-1/
Congrats man! Nice looking large cent.
Yeah, I hear you, but I still say be patient. There are lots of coins I track that might only appear once or twice a year on Ebay, some only once...
I see it a lot too. I just got a coin like my avatar on Ebay for $61, (usually they go for around $200), but I have also seen similar items go for...
The paper is flawed in many ways sir. It talks about how the public does not like coins as much as notes, duh. That is the experience of every...
On a serious note, I would definitely make sure your expensive items are now in a sdb AN. The number of times collectors who have innocent little...
Well don't worry, I will be giving him crap about this one for a while. :) He is a pretty good natured guy.
But, the point of many of us would be an MS65 St Gaudens today would be worth much more IF NOT for the mint already restriking this design. The...
Neither have I really, but it is dramatically unmixed. Maybe there is something going on at the AM, I just cannot tell from photos. It would be a...
Lol. Yeah, I have some of these of course in junk silver piles. With the whole "lowest graded set" stuff going around, I should look through them...
I think they were just referring to the poorly mixed alloy, giving the coin the dramatic coloring difference John.
Good information Numbers, but a fundamentally flawed paper. They are either discounting or leaving out large amounts of applicable data. However,...
The only thing that stands out to me are the striation marks on the obverse from 1 o clock to 8 o clock. I do think its about as original as you...
I agree with the others. Alexander made millions of copper coins, but never identical design to his tets like this piece is. This is an example of...
Um, you could have bought 9 silver eagles, or one tenth ounce gold. How again would youe return today have been better with the gold?
