They do. I know, since I was the one escorting them. I am a pretty big guy, and former Army, so I used to escort all of the dealers at a show our...
Has that law been tested though? I have seen court cases ruling a coin is personal property, and the owner is free to do what he wishes with it....
Good to know, thanks. I have also shopped there for years, (mail order obviously). Their safety flips are nice quality, though.
A liberty cap was presented to slaves to signify they were free. It was on early American coinage, specifically half and large cents from about...
How about a liberty cap on a pole? Its emblematic of freedom.
All too true. When it boils down to it, its scary how much investing is a psychological exercise more than a financial one. Some of the best and...
No sir, I was simply explaining that your initial inquiry was so vague that I would not feel comfortable answering it, since the data I said was...
Like Jim said, its fine for short term. Its said PVC causes damage since its much superior in every other way for flips. They don't crack, scratch...
I would go with the "put it in the bank" suggestion. I don't know your situation sir, so its impossible for me to give you a rational suggestion....
I never said i did either sir, but we are not the average, right? If I can sit down and over a cup of coffee explain the simple concept, get them...
I guess 211, 218, 226. Thanks, Chris
Lets look at where we have been to see where we should go. 1794 Flowing hair, scary looking girl, not good. Tiny little eagle on reverse, no...
Its a continuum. No way to answer definitively. Holed coins are the worst damage, then major bending, then things like scratches. Please post a...
???? I am confused. Go ahead and tell me if I am just being dense, (wouldn't be the first time). If I see a slab labelled 1928 Peace dollar, I...
Ok, further down that path. A 1916 mercury, and the mintmark is there, but worn enough to not be able to tell if a D or S. Would be labeled a (p),...
IDK sir. I used to clean "uncleaned coins" but was lucky and did it when you really could get coins from the ground from a couple of sellers. I...
Yeah you are right Kryptonite, (and Doug). The more I discuss this coin, I don't have a right to second guess the TPG without the coin in hand. I...
I understand sir, but in fact they did label it. They didn't label it 1921 (unknown), they labeled it 1921 (philadelphia). I simply do not think...
FWIW, I am hearing even the high end auction houses in Europe are selling many bronzes without mentioning it either. A member of my ancient coin...
Then we are talking about different things. Bright shiny mint red? No, no copper can ever remain that color. It will darken a little at the very...
