Ayup. :) "Buy low, sell high" implies that you know when an item is going to go up or down. You don't. "Buy when rising, sell when falling" is...
As opposed to the old adage, "buy when it's going up, sell when it's going down"?
An interesting note -- I noticed that a "sell your gold/silver here" place recently opened in a nearby strip mall. I went in and asked the woman...
From what I've seen, post ASEs or Maples on eBay at a Buy It Now price of 15% above spot, and they'll sell within minutes. Yes, market volatility...
Hah! I never thought of it that way. On the other hand, that sort of begs the question -- after all, while a coin in higher grade is "nicer", so...
Mount Doom?
It seems like the 1928 has a particularly low value curve across grades -- NumisMedia FMV goes from 276 (G4) to 299 (F12) to 334 (XF40) to 516...
Well, they weren't exactly rolled, but I got 57 Ikes from an eBay seller -- for $55, plus $5 shipping. :scratch: Circulated, some with gunk on...
But isn't natural toning "applied via gas" -- gases present at low levels in the air surrounding the coin?
Funny, my "fake" circuits didn't kick in until I saw your "cause for concern" phrasing. :( On closer examination, though, I'm not seeing obvious...
Hard to tell from static photos, but I don't see obvious scuffing or dark stuff in crevices. I'd guess maybe dipped, but not scrubbed. What's the...
I'm looking at the first 50 most recent Buy It Now listings for US coins, and 45 of them have dates. Of the 5 that don't, one is for cotton...
I was thinking that the one on the left looked like "that" D. :) Remember that the 1916-D is one of the most faked coins around -- the quote I...
Not a clue in the world. I still haven't worked up the courage to buy my first common-date Saint. :)
All it takes is two per auction -- and if there are 10 coming up, that means only 11 people (since each loser will presumably try again). There...
Hmm. Diamonds and jade pieces are each unique; one half-carat diamond could easily be worth many times as much as another of the same size/weight....
This. The good deals go in less than two minutes (there's still a small delay between "auction start" and the time it starts showing up in...
One what? A good old day? :)
I don't know why anybody would quarter a 1 oz round instead of just using 90% dimes and quarters. The rounds and small bars out there still have...
I thought we already established that it was Altered Surfaces/Questionable Color? :devil:
Separate names with a comma.
