I'll assume you're talking about the folks who sold the fake silver bars, and not OP.
Yup. An ever-increasing amount of BTC will be lost, unable to circulate -- but nobody can ever be sure how much, and at any point an arbitrarily...
It's not a numismatic question, though, any more than "what should I do with this newspaper that's soaked in rat poison" is a question for an...
Pretty sure they aren't the go-to sources for hazmat disposal info.
When I started collecting as a child, they were the first coin that was within reach (could be found at face value, could be accumulated on a...
Pretty sure that's exactly backwards. The most effective way to control mercury emissions from waste incinerators is keeping it out of the waste...
I'd like to get one of each, to have, not to flip -- and I'm almost entirely a "buy cheap so you can sell expensive" opportunist, erm,...
Looks like it shows the unmistakable signs of early-20th-century Smithsonian "conservation", too. :( "I still see some dust. Scrub harder!"
I've lived my whole life on the East coast, so it's always been a big deal for me when I find an S-mint coin in circulation. The YN inside me...
Yeah, and this would be news to exactly nobody who knows me. :rolleyes:
Are you sure you were born and raised in America? ;)
Well, you could bake out the mercury (OUTDOORS) -- yeah, it would go into the atmosphere, but that's not much mercury, and it would dissipate...
And all I did was poke around a little bit in the neighborhood of @AmishJedi's link. I have this overwhelming urge to call in sick to work and...
No, and I'm pretty sure I remember deliberating a while before I signed up. My brother, though, signed up earlier -- in the AuctionWeb days, I...
Very familiar with the star, generally familiar with its mythology, completely unfamiliar with the Keos cult or the coins featuring it. Great post!
Call and raise... ;) [ATTACH] At one point five or ten years ago I was actively reporting bad listings using a back-channel link, but they shut...
Nope. It's just making it easier for us to watch them standing and staring at the water. I can look at several coins I purchased as a YN and see...
Indeed, but that shows the same data @mlov43 posted. I'm guessing the report at this link may contain what he's looking for (1973/74), but I don't...
I have no experience with that series, so I don't know how they normally tone, but that first one sure doesn't look natural to me. It does match...
I'd have to give that one the "didn't even try" award -- you can still make out the remains of the 4 in the damaged part. And the mint mark is in...
Separate names with a comma.
