Look at the weights listed for 1892-1964 dimes. Why are they 1% higher than the 2.5g listed in the Red Book? Look at the weights for Barber and...

My take: an investment is something that provides dependable growth or income, whether over the short or long term. ("I'm going to lock up this...
To paraphrase a great economist, the eBay marketplace can remain irrational longer than I can remain patient.
As long as eBay gets their cut, it's really hard to convince them that there's any such thing as a "bad seller".
If I make it to the 300th, I'm darn well going to hang on until the total solar eclipse that comes RIGHT OVER MY HOUSE on May 11, 2078. Of...
