<blink> Welcome back, Books! Where the heck have you been keeping yourself?
[IMG] [IMG] For future reference once the auction is taken down. Any VAMmers want to weigh in on its possible impossibility?
I think that coin has the textbook definition of "fatty" letters. Check all of E PLURIBUS UNUM, but most especially the L. Also, note that "die...
It looks like silver right now on eBay is going at an effective price of $30-33 per ounce -- 90% dimes/quarters/halves are selling at 22x-24x face...
Ordered, or purchased in-person? Pics! I agree about them being a good form of silver. You won't get as much for them when you go to sell as you...
And, I'd add, even if we're using allegorical figures. I know there would be furious push-back against it; I remember all too well the howls of...
Allegorical figures and scenes, please.
Well, not in January, anyhow. The year is still young.

I'll be watching with interest when the overseas markets open this evening.
That's a key part. I'd love to be able to buy 1870 furniture or glassware at 1870 prices, but I'd want no part of 1870 medical care. And don't...

Of course, silver-plated coins look just the same with that test.
If you want photos that show more detail on the coins, try photographing them on a black background. It might encourage your phone to bump up the...
I'm sorry for your loss. When I lost a cousin last fall, it hit me harder than I'd expected, and I hadn't seen or spoken to him in more than ten...
Not any more, they aren't -- melt value is up to $9.50, and I'll bet local shops aren't letting them go for less than $12.
To my mind, it's still worth at least as much as a no-name one-ounce round. I did once buy a harshly cleaned (heavily scratched) ASE for around...
For most people, it's easy to distinguish slight discrepancies in faces. Apparently. For me, not so much. On the other hand, even a tiny...
When you see a chain of timeouts like that in one section of the route, but success at the end of the route, it usually just means that the...
I've been checking other sites -- eBay, Google, the local news station -- and everything's fine. As I said on another thread, networking...
