What you're talking about has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. Look up the US Code, US Mint, deposit with the mint. You'll find it.
I'm reasonably certain there wasn't any "kind of forced" to it. Just yesterday Orange County announced that any business not following the new...
You seem to like looking things up - so go look it up. :) It really isn't that hard to find. As a matter fact, I'm reasonable certain that you...
Anybody that wants to figure out how to do it can figure it out, the same way everybody else has. People have been dipping coins to remove toning...
Yeah that's all true if you're company. But US citizens can are still allowed by law to deposit gold and silver with the US mint and receive coins...

I agree with Conder101.
There are numerous specialty books on US gold coins that list known census numbers, (how many actually still exist), for date/mint. And many...
A list ? No. But that's because they can all do damage when not used properly. Are some harsher or stronger than others, or are some less harsh...
If there is I've never heard or read of one. About all one can do is assume that it is left to the graders' and the finalizer's discretion as to...
Yeah, from Barbers through Frankies more of them saw circulation, for reasons John explained above. But that only last about 50 years. Prior to...
It's definitely possible. Thank god ! We have way too much of it as it is.
Believe it or not, so do I. But that doesn't prevent me from understanding why others see it differently.
They're treated like bullion because in most cases they are bullion and always have been. There's just too many of them. You can, and always...
I didn't say I did see it happening - I said was wondering IF it would happen. They own at least 12 different subsidiaries. And I wonder because...
