Sounds like the 1979 figures were well off the peak. I'm betting they were briefly north of $40K. And today, I imagine bid is down around $12K. A...
You do know that all cents minted before 1982 were copper, right?
Interesting! Wonder how long it'll take the TPGs to realize that they can get more $$$ by tagging these as "rare variety" (whether they actually...
That's true, although I had to look.
Hey, they could have -- they just didn't feel like it, man. To be fair, I could wish I'd bought gold in 2008 (I wasn't quite back into the hobby...
Your speech-recognition software asked if you could please stop mumbling. ;) So, about one wheat every three rolls? Is that similar to what...
That's a bit much to ask, I think.
$2000+ seems... okay, for an effort of this caliber, I think it actually seems pretty reasonable. I'm in no position to bid, but that's a really...
I'd like to thank "them". (Heck, I wouldn't mind joining "them", but I'm not sure how you set up a throwaway account without eBay catching on...)
...because not doing it exposes you to lawsuits. :rolleyes: Glad to hear they're quickly saying the right things. So often you need to go through...
Yep, gold only briefly touched $800 at that time, and spent a fairly short time over $600. If it wouldn't be too much trouble, could you check...

Oh, yeah, that thing. Gotcha.
Added qualification above. Arguing that "this is okay because they guessed right" doesn't carry any water in the world of actual business policy....
Ah, a trivia contest. :) I'm dimly aware of a few pre-1933 issues -- the McKinley dollar, the Pan-Pac and Sesquicentennial quarter eagles, and I...
I find it hard to get excited about doubling in general, but when the market says a cent I got at face value is worth 50 bucks or so, it does get...
I got a Morgan as a Christmas gift from my grandparents around 1970. I don't remember if they'd previously gotten them (all the grandkids got one)...
Any particular tells we can point to? I mean, yeah, the slab doesn't match the slab in the auctions, but it could've been reholdered, right? The...
Compare it to the photos in the link. The photos here are a bit blurry, but it looks like a clear match to me.
Meh. I'll try to fish out an old computer magazine from that era and post a couple of ads. The old days weren't good in every way. For bonus...
Separate names with a comma.
