We agree more than I thought then. I wasn't seeing any kind of scratching, just a newly cleaned late Sassanid with good details and a little...
As an aside to the conversation, i agree with rhysherms. I have a cfp, and as part of the program were shown how unsound advice was litigatable....
Butchered and scrubbed? I do not see that at all. I see a better than average late 5th to mid 6th century sassanid. Find me any of these for $10...
I don't think so. I own both and these are more complex than abassid or ummayad. I am guessing late medieval-early modern persian if i had to...
Why don't you show the whole story and show how this level of comex gold is still much higher than ten years ago? Kind of leads to a different...
Ok. Just checking sir. Way too many people leveraged to the hilt were "getting into" pm when they should have been "getting into" a better...
Many times that is a wise choice. TBH, besides loving to hold pm, that is a huge advantage of buying physical like we do. I can stick it in the...
Looks authentic. Its shiny since it was cleaned after it was unearthed. Definitely late Sassanid, but not very late like Khusro II. I am thinking...
What to do with $800? Do you have credit cards paid off? Funded a retirement plan? Have a few months salary set aside? If yes to all, I would...
Nice coins everyone. I was going to comment about the other scenes, but of course Doug beat me to it and posted pics. I have especially loved the...
Lol, here is a new one to me, and I have been reading PM stories for 30 years now: http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1370356200.php About...
Lol, you are right. Like I said before, I am usually ok with the blood in the streets, (not to say you won't lose sleep over the decision though),...
I hear you Jim. The weird thing is that the same article has been written over and over and over, just change out the "bad guys" and republish...
Not bad. Inasmuch as the treasury reusing this design, i would be more likely to suggest a $10,5 and 2.50 indian type set myself. Best you can...
On first glance sure looks like a macedonian bronze to me as well.
Search under treasurer office. They usually run unclaimed property. Unfortunately, they usually sell off items after a few years, and will just...
Sounds like a guy who will be working himself into a position where he will have no vendors willing to sell to him. If I were a seller, the first...
Now, come on Frank. You know darn well I dropped that on my last trip to Cali. I have been wondering where I left that...... ;)
I would also say just offer the coin out to the underbidder. If someone is trying to weasel out of their bid, they are just going to return the...
Not disagreeing with you sir, just making a historical point so everyone understands. Stock markets never wait until a recovery is here, they are...
