Yup, that's the rub. You can pay a slight premium and get the coin today or soon....or save a few bucks and get it months or years down the line....
What local coin auctions are you talking about -- estate sales ?
Jim, lots of us get where you are coming from. And quite frankly, I think the mark-ups and commissions could be a bit less and still let the...
