What I am objecting to sir is the fact not one post made any mention of wishing to pay workers $2 an hour, wishing to "wine and dine" at the...
Hmm, weird. None of the shows in MN or IL has a large selection of these that I see. In a small show of 30 tables there may be 2 for sale if you...
Yeah, I know, but you know what I mean man. Go to an old coin show with 50 tables and you would see 200 of these for sale. Heck, in the 80's they...
Yes. All coppers in the tetrarchy period are follis except for some scarce half and I believe quarter follis of the pre-reform period. They are...
Nice search Doug. Still, only 5 show up on probably the largest website of dealers. Time was every dealer and his brother had one of these for...
Sorry, but this sounds like a lot of class envy nonsensical garbage. Who said $2 an hour? They are claiming a bill for $7000 for half an hours...
I for one have always hated "fantasy issues" like this that look like a mint employee wanted to supplement his income. I hate 1913 LHNs as well....
Very well could be sir, I am just responding to the image. If the coin is actually very pleasing in hand, that is an epic fail in posting a photo...
Looks like a harshly cleaned, dinged up VF/XF to me. I don't see an issue with authenticity in my eyes. Remember these reeded edge pieces...
Great advice Doug, but I have noticed these are pretty scarce nowadays. Used to be every issue of WCN would have 8-10 for sale at least, now its...
I guess then they should win their case and then go to a Federal Penetentiary for tax evasion then.
I always wondered what the heirs would have done if they had won the legal battle with the US concerning these 33's legality. In my view, even if...
Yeah, but if you go back and look at his entire history, this coin dealer in Philadelphia had a long history of owning lots of items that appeared...
He bought them from a mint employee there is little doubt. The legality would come into play whether the mint employee legally owned them or not....
Or the newspaper fact checkers nowadays. I knew it sounded horribly high, but I knew a FEW Islamic coins are tremendous rarities, so didn't want...
Top left one is upside down.....
Sounds a lot like Philadelphia. No offense meant to anyone who lives there, but to me that city has always seemed to have "issues". I bet the ANA...
I agree on both counts, that Israel blends in ancient motifs and this thread should be moved. :) At least Israel is doing it for the right...
Doug touched on this, and there has been a series of letters in NN recently talking about dealers and shows. It appears a great many dealers only...
They aren't terribly large, and are not pure 24k gold. Melt value would maybe be around 100 pounds or less.
