Crazy? Not necessarily. But when you do land that SLQ proof, I hope you'll post pictures here. ;)
Nice. That Barber half is better than the detail-free AGs I normally see in these frames. The Ike looks like silver from this shot, too. I agree...
Checking change is a good way to start, then. Everything you get is still worth what you paid for it, which is a lot more than I can say for most...
Not the first time I've come across the response "I don't want to bother with a coin shop" or "I don't trust the coin shop". Seems there's room...
Mattresses, with lots of space inside for stacks of greenbacks.
They have short memories and/or lucrative commission structures. Here's PCGS's index of a basket of rare coins, starting in 1970: [IMG] That...
People were saying that even more loudly in 2011. I bought a good bit of silver coinage when silver was above $40/oz. I'm glad I didn't count on...
Just remember, that's 18 identified as SMS out of a total mintage well over a billion. When I was change-checking in the 1970s, it seemed like...
Then you'll have to deal with the people who don't want genetically manipulated money in their wallet.
LOL. You'll get 5-10 times that on eBay, probably closer to 10. It's an S VDB! And an old holder! Maybe it'll upgrade! :rolleyes:
Yup. Doesn't seem especially sustainable, does it? Over here on the other coast, our NC sales taxes perhaps haven't risen quite so sharply, but...
Math check on aisle 3... If .25 to 1.00 is a 300% increase (and it is), then .013 to .09 is a 592% increase. I don't know when the CA combined...
I welded a bandsaw blade into a block of Lucite trying to cut it. The plastic melts and sticks to the blade. Best bet for cutting is a hot wire,...
You asked where to find the price of silver, and so far two out of three replies are telling you where to buy silver. :rolleyes: I use...
There's a lot to grouse about with these coins, but yeah, me too. And the Walker as well, most likely.
Could be. But, like @iPen said, it's kind of a nice presentation as-is. Unless I wanted to try getting the coin slabbed or something, I'd be...
New on eBay: 1989-P KENNEDY HALF DOLLAR - TONED [ATTACH] And here's the monster who toned it, I think: [IMG]
I experimented with getting coins out of a Lucite toilet seat. It didn't go especially well. I managed to free some of them, but they were bent by...
I'm too lazy to try to look up numbers now, but I have to imagine that the Mint's demand for 90% is a tiny fraction of the total demand for...
Separate names with a comma.
