If I were to change careers and try to become a professional numismatist, it would be as a shop owner. I grew up in family owned small business...
Got both the bow options plus a crossbow. Current stockpile of ammo is around 20,000 rds. What I am missing is a reloading setup. Maybe by...
Considering that my coin with the most value would be right around $80, that doesn't go very far in the world of firearms. So junk silver would...
It wouldn't be on the high end but the next coin I trade/sell will go towards the purchase of a firearm. Most likely I would be more willing to...
Nice start. Keeping it reasonable and not likely to get in too deep. If that is the condition that you will strive for, you should be able to do...
I've only got three in silver so far. One slabbed MS69 and two in 2x2s. Paid melt for all three. One of my LCSs had them for $8 each in 2x2s....
So I should bust it out of the slab and put it in a 2x2? Or just keep it in the slab for protection?
I don't see any problems with this coin. I don't know if it makes DCAM PR70 but it is definately PR65+. I looked at it with my magnifier and I...
I gave $3 for it. Figured the coin by itself was well worth that.
Would the grading of the coins in these slabs be anywhere near accurate? I picked up a 1977-S Eisenhower in DCAM PR70 at a shop last night. It...
Sounds like the tactic the hucksters on the HSN coin shows use. "Buy this commonly had $10 coin for $59.99 today because it has valuable silver...
$22.50 for every $1 of face value coin. So a roll of Franklins is $22.50 x $10 face=$225. Just less typing to state price for a face $1 of junk...
Ebay and its fees have become too much. It is stacked entirely in a buyers favor. Especially with a known price market like non-collectible...
The one LCS that I have sold to in the past pays spot for mint uncirculated ASEs. ASEs with any damage from handling or rubbing together will not...
Guns and ammo. Maybe some numismatic coinage for my Franklin set. I was buying at this price and a bit higher in the spring. I was still...
At the price we are at now, mid-$34, buy whichever has the lowest premium to spot. The ASE/ML bullion will probably sell at spot or just a little...
I don't use change. Any change comes home and gets put in a 5 gallon water jug. The last time we emptied it, 2009, it was $2938 and we went on a...
I thought a radar was a serial that reads the same backwards as forward. Like: 3457667543
My grandmother has a large coffee can, 2 lb size, of Mercs that my granfather would save out of his pocket change. I have never actually seen it...
I bought the Yellowstone for spot + $1.25. If I come across any more for that low premium, I would be a buyer. I passed on one that my LCS had...
