BitCoin may go up or down. But it is NOT a currency. Doesn't meet any of the requirements of a currency. The first time someone is hacked or...
A 4-day coin show that seems very well-run....and it's not anywhere near as well-known as the other biggies. A good job to strike while the iron...
Please report back on dealer attendance and public attendance, too !
Wow, 1 guy puts on a show that big ? Impressive.....where did they hold it ? A hotel ?
If anything, I think that some of the "C" coins are probably more deserving of a 1-grade lower reduction. I simply never bought that the "A"...
This show -- and other Florida shows including FUN -- no doubt benefit from all the transplanted retirees who have plenty of time (and $$$ :D )....
I would think it just shows that pre-1900 Liberty Head DE's are just very tough to get in Mint State, esp. Type 1 and Type 2's. But you could...
Thanks for the update...might be the biggest coin show held (at least mentioned here on CT) since C-19 hit last March.
Wow...that's a pretty big show. It's about 2x the Parsippany (Garden State) Coin Show held monthly. Lakeland is monthly, quarterly.... ?
Publius, great update...how many dealers/tables would you estimate ?
So true..if everyone here agreed with 100% of what I post, what the hell would I learn here ? Whey even come to CT ? Love the give-and-take,...
He wanted the CAC and it couldn't get the sticker at MS-66.
I don't think greed entered into the equation here, Phil. I think the guy just had a hard-on for CAC and was willing to have a lower grade with...
Thanks LD.....I've been a bit more active over there of late, maybe I'll get an invite for FUN 2022. Hope to see all my FUN friends again in 11...
It's probably VERY rarely done. The coin in question (I forgot to mention) was an ultra-rare Saint-Gaudens 1927-D. This is the only time I've...
What is CAC's opinion on toning -- acceptable (adds to quality/grade) or a negative ? Am I correct that DECADES ago toning was considered...
Ditto !
BTW....if any experts in alot of the obscure coins that John Alabanese mentioned price-wise wants to chime in as to how those coins are quoted...
The Whitman Show in Baltimore is probably pretty close for you. But FUN should also be on your to-goto list. :D
This 2008 interview with John Albanese and Maurice Rosen is very eye-opening and still relevant, regardless of your opinion of CAC. It's tough to...
