Doug has experience but he has a "glass half empty" outlook on coins. Both sides will be right some of the time and nobody has a crystal ball....
Thanks for all the compliments!
I guess they needed to be ranked?? I wouldn't have thought there was 100 modern U.S. coins to rank. Not really interested in this program.
Was just going to say, I've never seen that label before. You almost can't keep up with the label changes now. What's with the rank number?
The Canadian mint is already one step ahead. They came out with a full .999 proof set this year including the cent. I ordered one. Probably...
I think he's just a cheap skate that expects to buy every coin at melt value (or less) and doesnt understand that there's 6 billion people out...
Totally agree with this. I noticed it yesterday at the small show I went to. When you first start going to shows, everything looks impressive....
lol
Again, the story you gave, he may have said it exactly as you stated, but it sounds totally fake to me. Like he was just messing with you. Some...
The only problem I see with this strategy is that you're assuming you're going to be the only one there that wants the coin. Maybe with a $325...
Well I googled it. Prior to 1200 to 1300 AD, IIII was commonly used for 4, essentially breaking the rule. It was commonly used on roman sun...

Thanks for the compliments Lionel! Used to have a few more Morgans but I traded a few toners on some other stuff. What's in the album is what I...
Here's a few basic rules to help you read them in the future. Once you know what the symbols stand for, it's pretty basic. You can't have...
It depends on the coin, the price on the holder and the demeanor of the seller for me. Sometimes the price on the holder seems reasonable. If...
I'm surprised the proof set was still there. There was a herd of people at this table. I didn't go there to get a proof set and I really...
Well, I went to a show today and completed my Franklin half album. I bought the two best 49 halves they had there, a proof 63 and a 64 Kennedy...
What do you guys think of this? I was on the hunt for Franklins today to finish my album. I needed a 49, 49-D and I wanted a proof and a 64...
If you think you really have something, go to a few different professionals and see what each have to say. Pawn shop employees/owners tend not to...
Nice find! I've looked at a lot of 99s like this and I've never found one. In the first pics I was ready to say it wasn't but in the latter pics...
