Now, that's just crazy talk.
I'm not certain, but I think it may be related to the service that warrants marking a ten-cent coin up to $1000 or more just because it was minted...
At this point, the dealer is just another middleman. I understand everyone's frustration at trying and failing to get one of these. But your...
That's because Superman always gets there first. And his X-ray vision doubles for XRF analysis, so he'll spot the silver every time.
Exactly. They want EXCITEMENT -- in fact, plenty of people here have posted about how boring the Mint's releases are lately. This one certainly...
Let's see the legislative definitions for "fiasco" and "gouging" first. :rolleyes: Do you really want the Mint to set policy based on what people...

The way I saw @C-B-D's post: [ATTACH]
Except there's no such thing as copper-coated zinc webbing. The Mint buys cent blanks pre-made from Jarden, and while I can't find an explicit...
o_O If I saw bidding wars erupting over the Buffalo News Paper each evening, I might eventually be tempted...
I'm happy to grant that the 1989 spike is a special feature, and ignore it for the sake of argument. I'm not at all confident in the Internet and...
Yup. At this point, I'd be confident enough in its authenticity to pay my own money for it.
Not to be confused with the 30,000 discussion threads complaining about the results.
