Is anyone watching the live Heritage Auction at FUN? It might be interesting to discuss as we watch it. I watched the earlier session this...
If anyone wants to meet up prior to the JRCS meeting (9am on Friday), I'll be the youngest guy there. Look for the crazy Einstein hair.
The whole coin feels fake.
I was watching it live when it sold. It was quite an amusing auction. The auctioneer was egging them on, I think he was surprised at how high it...
The problem with ICG and ANACS graded coins is that nobody wants them. Sure, you may save on fees upfront - but you'll lose far more than that on...

.... Your new pics are no better than your old pics, and may actually be worse.... Your last 2 posts show 2 completely different coins... Try...
Maybe not, but I am ;) A bottle of Pouilly-Fume and a bottle of Beaujolais-Morgon will do that to you :)
ASE's probably have the highest premium over spot of any government issued bullion in the world. It just isn't worth it, unless you *really* want...
Not with those photos, I can't. It is somewhere between AU-55 and MS-67. Not trying to be mean, hope I don't come off that way. There are many...
You want my honest, unadulterated opinion? I think he's a counterfeiter. I think the things he makes are detestable abominations. I think he...
