Oh come on, please don't throw all Americans under the bus over this. :) Yeah, a bunch of Yanks invented it, (I have met both, they are nice...
Sounds more like Thanksgiving dinner to me. :D Is Euthanizing the same as giving to a redneck like me for supper?
I buy directly from coin dealers in China, but I agree you must know your dealer, know your coins, and be careful. One experienced Chinese dealer...
From CT Archives: http://www.cointalk.com/t52593/ Bangkokcoin has pics of these, but no pricing I am afraid. Bangkokcoin is owned by the...

I agree actually. I think the mint should intentioanlly make little "variations" at times. I think near perfect coins all of the time is way too...
I understand sir, but even relative premiums have changed. It used to be St Gaudens were $50 or more expensive than liberty heads. Now the...

I just have a HUGE problem with them reusing old designs, especially on differently sized coins. One, the artist created his artistic vision...
I think its the definition of a "collector". All of us have coins that no matter what we will never part with. Off the top of my head some of mine...
