Really ? I find that strange. When you open a cedar chest, or a cedar lined closet, do you not smell the cedar ? What do you suppose that smell is...
Given that there are only 23 points on the coin I see no way for it to have been used as a calendar. I'm sure there probably is some significance...
Rassi - the photograde site is OK for giving you an idea of what a coin might look like in a given grade. But it can be very deceiving because you...
I'd have to say no on all of them. Just so you'll know, you'll have a much, much, better chance of finding the '66 and '67 in cameo than you...
No, not at all. In fact it does the opposite, it increases your chances of finding a bargain. Tell me, which is the better bargain ? You ask...

Every job has its upside and its downside. Those of a grader have been discussed. But what about the job of being a coin buyer ? You work for a...
Cherd - You can build all the graphs and charts you want and it's not gonna do much good. The reason it won't do much good is because the charts...
Well Ruben I have to disagree yet again. First of all, it is not illegal in stocks. Companies like S&P, Moody's, Fitch - they do exactly the same...
