Calm down there, Chris. :rolleyes: To me, the term wear means that you can't sell a coin for what it could have been worth -- in other words,...
Yep.
If the lottery let you peek and only buy tickets that are winners, or return the ones that aren't, it would be exactly like the lottery. :)
I once landed 1995 proof ASE (plus a 1995 clad proof set) for $8 plus $5 shipping. Sometimes people list things for much less than they're worth.
Canceling two of the three negatives, then paraphrasing, I get: "You'd be a fool to accept a challenge to prove that numismatic publications hire...

Do you honestly believe, though, that the magazines were not biased?
In other words, spend equal amounts on gold and silver. I guess that's analogous to dollar-cost averaging. With the ratio at its current level,...
I wouldn't dream of making any recommendations without seeing the coin in-hand. Actually, I wouldn't dream of it even after seeing the coin...
Because .999 has 0.1% non-gold content, and .9999 has 0.01% non-gold content, and those are different! Now, if you're asking why anyone would...
