I would check out www.numislit.com for their auctions. They have these references pretty often. I have most Conder recommends and don't even...
Very true sir, but there is a caveat to Gresham's law, (or at elast there should be), that both types of money have to be equally acceptable to...
Yeah, that is what I meant, Conder just said it better. :) Chris
I understand what you are saying, but we simply don't know. My point about sVDB's being for sale means they are not rare, just expensive because...
Doesn't matter if there were or not. If all other cents had 10x that issue, the sVDB would still be as expensive as it is. It is DEMAND that makes...
Well, considering they have the same metal composition, the only differences being that they are not reeded or have a copper core showing on the...
They are always come ons to me. "Dealer's cost" is unprovable, they can say almost any number is their "cost" using different justifications....
Oh, I didn't know Bill sold. I don't know about how he runs a business, I just know he was a good guy for the hobby. I met him once somewhere,...
I think a combination of people hoarding the state quarters when they came out, but the novelty wore off, and the economy. I think a lot of the...
Thanks for the clarification Hontanai. It really is Orwellian isn't it? I mean, they pass law so ambiguous so that almost any action COULD fall...

Large holders in GM and other firms have lost everything holding preferred stock. Cloud gives a great definition of Preferred Stock. Because it is...
I have removed crayon marks before. First get a piece of plastic that cannot harm the metal. Practice on another coin if you need to. Then, simply...
Weird coin overall. I would be very careful of it. I do collect Byzantine and that coin simply strikes me as wrong in a number of ways. First, the...
Still don't understand how they are "counterfeit". I understand the Fed does not want another type of currency, but to me that is simply an...
I agree great portrait, especially if its better in hand. Definitely a candidate for a "portrait collection" since the reverse isn't as nice as...
Its sad. This is a result of the way the prosecution was done, and in the prosecution somehow convinced the court that these items are counterfeit...
I think the price spike has been most noticable since you started Mat. If you are depressed now, you should see some of the purchases I made 8...
Still not crazy about it. I didn't like their earlier version of have the little postage stamps per store front, and this one is even worst. I...
