Is this based on a comparison of slabbed pop counts to original mintage figures? I don't know how many were stashed by contemporary collectors,...
I see that "Plated and Clad Bars" will now have a ghetto, er, category of their own. Good.
It appears to show at least XF details, which would make it a five-figure coin, but it's in a stapled paper flip marked "VG-F". Nope, I can't see...
Sure, what you've said makes sense. But if the economy does improve, gold will come back down. I know it may put me in a minority in these...
I like both the 3-cent silver and nickel varieties -- but probably only because they're so uncommon.
I'd think this test would be unreliable. First, are the clad and silver packaging materials of equal weight? Second, I could easily increase...
Man, I am so glad that coin didn't walk through the door of the local Cash4Gold instead...

Just came across a FR02 1916-D in an ICG "slab" for a bit over $250. I know you're supposed to hold out for the best coin you can afford, but this...
Okay, what's the back-story on this? It's enough to make me wonder if somebody's showing off their skill at faking PCGS slabs.
Or patterns in graphs of market prices. :devil:
How low can you go on slabbed genuines -- dug, scrubbed, P01?
That's an excellent point. It's not quite as scary as Craigslist, where scammers can selectively target people who are geographically close enough...
Except when you buy a lot on eBay that's worth a lot more than others realize, or hasn't shown up on their searches, or scares off a lot of...
