I would also throw out that I would bet someone a steak dinner that 1964d silver dollars DO exist. I think they are hiding under a rock, (or safe...
Yours I do not know Leadfoot. I was thinking more like: http://islandcoins.com/peace/peace_1...259868-039.htm which was posted earlier. To...
While we are talking about cheap silver, where would you suggest selling 40% Kennedy's? I have a few, (hundred), and really do not want them, but...
I was commenting on the 10% silver Mexican coins, which since they aren't as common as US coins, and have just a trace of silver, are very...
Hard to tell with the photos. My first guess would be very lightly circulated, in which case I would also say older cleaning. Even a AU 58 IHC is...
I seriously do not think they sell for 4x face when the silver is worth 6.4x face today. I could be wrong...
My concern with buying gold with a credit card, (if these machines accept them), would be fraud. Steal a credit card, go to the gold vending...
What a crazy man. I will state I have personally opened up rolls, back when toning was a bad thing, and seen Peace dollars like this. The ends...

I do not think there is a dollar worth of silver in them, so I wouldn't even pay a buck. I have a lot of mexican silver, and a few of these, (came...

Yep, which is why hopefully when silver goes down they will still be around to cherry pick through. Its one of my favorite tricks, but since I...
I think the reason computer grading would "fail" as it would give an absolute answer. I think it could be programmed to detect wear. I doubt the...
Good list, but I would swap out Grading Coins by Photographs $19.95 and A Whitman Guidebook: United States Gold Counterfeit Detection Guide $19.95...
But that doesn't jive with the facts. Our fiat money, (and the entire world is fiat money), has always been debt driven and this has not made PM's...
What comments? Did he think they were AT? Edit: It would be interesting since at least a couple of these I would consider the toning outright...
While they are the same date, I am not sure they would necessarily be a "group". Looks like original roll toning to me. While Morgans were stored...
"Too good" changes based upon silver price, always has. With the silver market today, all of those things you mentioned that you couldn't junk are...
Be careful with ratios, is all I can say. Anyone can backfit a ratio and then tell you that it is telling you something today. Unless you...
