Dang, beat me Collector! :) 1361 should relate to Ming if that helps.
For most of their history Chinese cash did not have marks on the reverse. It wa sonly in the last couple hundred years that they had them. I would...
My quote started that thought, and I was trying to be cute commenting on how TPG are admitting that coins that used to be a 58 frequently are...
I wish it was that creative. If it were, I would use Melqart, baal'zabal, or similar.
Thanks guys, but I am more confused than anything. I honestly thought I was helping the man, and anyone else who read the post. I still believe if...
Seriously, what is your problem with me X115? I posted on the other post about ASE, after you stated that you buy slabs and therefor "protected",...

Sir, I would recommend then to learn how to identify cleaned, bent, environmental damage, and grading yourself. Relying on TPG is dangerous,...

Sad, Cyrene coins are one of my favorites, and something like this will probably lead to a ban on imports. I am all for catching the losers who...
No sir, you are not incorrect, and I agree that 15 years ago may have been an unusual case. I was simply pointing it out so everyone here has a...
Yes, I thought that too Lindedad. I should have notated that assumption in my post, thank you.
OP, I think that it should be forwarded since you have a change of address form on file. In my experience this can add a week or two to the time,...
I was buying silver 15 years ago, trust me an ounce of silver would NOT buy 10 gallons of gas. More like 3. You are correct commodities hold...
