Who said it maintained that rato for thousands of years ? The prices for gold and silver were often NOT set by the free market, such as after WW...
The ratio was 16:1 in 1980 when gold and silver peaked. Many people used the ratio from those peak prices. The ratio has gone higher because...
That's asinine, why would they do that? You know damn well their graders aren't grading coins with wear as Mint State. I'll go over them again,...
Wow, they charge MORE for political stuff ? WTF ? Why would they do that...if anything, considering there's fewer political stuff than coins, I...
I don't think anything. The "hammer price" is the bidding price that you see going on during the auction over at HA or GC (NOT Ebay, where there...
FYI...even if you CATCH the Covid-19 virus after being vaccinated (many have)....the severity of the illness is likely to be far reduced.
Not my understanding, GD. 99.999% of Saints were used in settling trade and gold accounts. Very few circulated, something I didn't really know...
Actually, that's wrong...I have lots of MS69 AND 70 coins. Probably 50-50 or a bit more to the 69's.
A bunch of GSAs for sale over at HA.
I liked the TBP Catalog so much and wanted to preserve it that I bought a 2nd one, in softcover. :D
Just because something has a rarity in one country doesn't mean that similar rarity in another means they should command the same price. The gap...
Seller pays the commission ? How's it work ? I think they sell alot of stuff on Ebay.
Totally agree....CAC is real, holders are just speculation. I do recall the owner of one of the 1927-D Saints asking for a DOWNGRADE a few years...
If bullion is moving up, then pure bullion coins would probably do best. I do have many MS70's but they probably would lag to the upside.
Thanks....if someone stored a gold or silver coin in a velvet pouch 100 years ago, would that scratch to your knowledge ?
Why do they use the word "Details" ? What's being detailed ? I never understood why that signified a problem coin.:wideyed:
I did see them, just wanted to double-check with experts more familiar with Morgans. I might be stupid or something....but why does cleaning...
I like NGC's answer better....just put a label on it or a ribbon around it. To put an oversized plastic holder in ANOTHER holder is too much for me.
Just so we're clear for us novices...where are the hairlines and/or other evidence of cleaning you guys are focusing on ? Where's the wear ?
If you don't need a hard-to-find coin, GC is a great alternative. Bought a few coins from them, more currency from HA.
