Like others said, look at 2 peso coins or similar. Or just buy silver and some day trade up a bunch of them for some gold. You are a young guy,...
Looks like a 19th century, possibly early 20th century bronze. Most coinage metals aren't magnetic, so that will only show if its a cheap fake. I...
My opinions would be $50 would be fair for the RR. Lower grade, but serrated issues are popular and go for more typically. $150 for the Parthian...
My opinion is all PM and many other materials are related to oil prices since the incremental costs of producing them is tied to it. Think of them...
Jason, I would never trust this feeling. Form your own opinion. While there are some bright people here, going with a herd mentality is very...
I agree the seller is pretty high. I think when a lot of us quote values, its our values, experienced collectors who know where and how to look...
Some are, but you can choose your own poison by deciding on what grades to collect. It would be MUCH worst if they have done 18th century issues. :)
I agree, very nice. :) With those better pics, I would grade it aVF. Very nice coin at any price, but even better free, huh?
True, sorry I missed that. However, I find both firms using US grading standards on our coins. Btw FTWrath, I like your coin a lot. Very cool...
Btw, not to demean your coin, but its about a gF, maybe aVF. I would have to see it in hand. NGC overgrades these. They use US grading standards...
They need international growth due to so many US coins already slabbed. I am just not sure how successful they will be. Maybe they can find the...
Actually Collector's Universe is not a bad little stock. Nice yield, but limited growth potential in my eyes. I bought it and captured a dividend...
My thoughts exactly.
I agree I would not dip it. I do not find it unpleasant. I am leaning more than Matt that it would be fine if you did dip it, but I don't see why.
THere were other world coins in the first photo she posted, and some of those looked false. That is where my comment was from. Other than that I...
If "classics" mean 18th and 19th century coins, maybe 80%. There is nothing wrong with that either.
Of just bullion? Idk, a few thousand face value, and a few ounces of gold. More if you count world silver, but I don't keep track of that as bullion.
Well I see silver being sold every day at a market clearing price close to the CME, so it does not appear to be out of balance. If it were, why is...
Yeah, and it is their right I suppose. I for one would have dipped this ugly thing years ago. :)
True, IF the person knows what they are doing. Anyone who is reading this and wants to start dipping good coins, please stop. You will most...
