Yeah, "even ancients" ;). I agree Mark. The cool thing about this fact is its in the eye of the beholder. Therefor, we can all decide which...
Fair enough Kasia. My main problem with this whole thing is the seller knows he is being misleading. He KNOWS there are things a numismatist...
Just for curiousity, where does this logic end guys? What if he had found a rim imperfection when he deslabbed it? Do you still say once the...
Sounds you need some Byzantine lovin steve.
I agres the reverse is special. Nice one Mat.
Makes you think, though, doesn't it? Makes you think what may be missing with all of these coins sealed up in plastic how many problems there are...
Its actually the best April's Fools Day joke I have read in a while.
I agree. Some coins are just "wow" coins, and the general public always pays more than they are worth in general to coin collectors. Even when I...

I agree. I wish I had followed the same advice when getting into ancients. New guys, I KNOW, (believe me), that its tempting to buy "uncleaned...
Pretty much goes for the whole internet. I just ran across a Wiki article that was so bad, so full of wrong information, that in the editorial...
Its around 20x here as well from dealers. Frank Robinson on his latest world coin list had bulk world silver coins for around $26.50 an ounce ASW.
Very much a possibility. That is why they are blaming the EU collectively. If its the decision of a faceless bureaucracy its harder to know who to...
That is a pretty good price. CNG had some large lots where the prices of course were much cheaper per coin, but there were like 100 or more in a lot.
Nice. My volume is similar, actually being two works bound together in full calf.
You are more generous than I. I would have either proposed sending it back, or cracking the slab to determine if its method of manufacture and if...
Separate names with a comma.
