I would have two thoughts to your otherwise excellent review: Finally, the book briefly touches on Dave Crisp’s initial find of unrelated...
To me its the same as buying jewelry from the mall of being able to buy wholesale. The mall is retail, like Littleton, while coin shows are more...
I hear Mr. Kroh had a reputation somewhat like Mr. Gobl did I hear. I liked the book, though. I told you stright up what he thought, what was good...
Very true sir. I always wished there were either a rehash of Kroh's review book, or a good website with reviews. At one time for Moneta-L I...
Not true sir. They grade fairly and have high expenses advertising to the general public. The general public pays higher due to someone having to...
Kevin, I strongly suggest you buy a Redbook, (found at almost any book store), read it and learn more about coins before buying any. Coins are...
I appreciate your point David. However, to me, any type of coin that can be recreated this way has to be assumed to have been absent extraordinary...
Just another reason to purchase the books to support the hobby, no? :) Sorry just teasing Doug about our disparate love of printed references....
Its an industrial metal. You can buy it near spot, but only for large purchases. Its the same as buying stainless, cold rolled, nickel, etc. These...
I would concur, especially considering the wide spectrum in quality of fakes. The danger of relying on one marker is that, even if it works,...
Well I have cleaned some ancients in my day. I don't see much more detail to be revealed really. I would simply scrape off the dirt on the...
Not that unusual though. Every day coins are dug up that have been in the ground for thousands of years, so 250 is still just a baby!
I agree you should do nothing except tell your credit union that they should cross off the name and number before they give them to you. Its very...
That would be assuming the same amount of dollars in circulation, and also making an assumption as to the linkage betweeen the two. Two very large...
If it is a current book, that would be a wonderful idea. I would like to see what reference for the estimate is. Sorry, I am just used to...
? I was saying that many in the industry have been a broken record, and have said the same for 30+ years, as well as use scare tactics. At...
I have seen the copper too. Its a shame since its never a decent deal. The markups are atrocious. Most of the time copper would have to double to...
True, and I also agree with Guy. Lots of "gold" people either are hysterics believing the world is out to get them, or use hysteria to scare...
I knew you would have a better answer than mine for us. My first thought were simply that the few mints in the Gallic empire were small ones...
I would have difficulty accepting that. I would believe the entire empire made that many a year, or maybe more, but for the Gallic empire to make...
