And twenty lashes....
I'd be happy to find an 'easy' path to even getting half current exchange rate, as it would double my cost (aka 100% profit). Let the...
Thanks for the info guys. If I can't find a currency exchange in the USA to exchange these, there is this company (and probably others like it)...
So, I recently found a smallish stash of Japan 500 yen coins in a 'junk' bin at a recent local coin show. I know that the simple exchange rate...
Understood...but I'm sure a metallurgist would likely refute your statement of 'pure' when the entire coin is a silver alloy. I'm not a...

I buy nice mid-grade circulated Type 2 Standing Liberty quarters as my main 'long-term hold' collection. I believe they will hold their value and...

Back up the truck! ;)
Nice buy on the circulated silvers. I always like teens Aus coinage and Cuban. Are the last three cards valuable on the market? I've been...

If acquired through bulk purchases or CRH, they are sold to fund 90% or 99% or numismatics coins.
Purchased at a recent local show. I've been looking to buy an early French Directory 5 franc (the Bourdeaux mintmark is a nice bonus) and a...
Absolutely a good reason to limit spending for newbies and I assign $14.50 purchases to the 'small' category. And I completely sympathize about...
In light of this, then your ~$3-5 tuition payment for this education is also a good deal. Don't worry about pinching pennies for a fun hobby....
I'll simply echo that you paid about average retail and the 'bother' of returning is not worth it. It's a nice circulated example of a large...
Very cool buy. I got the same find about a two years ago.
Recent buy from my favorite LCS. $45 total, which is a good deal: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
These are my specialty and in my opinion this is a VG given the amount of wear throughout coupled with the very weak date. I'd say this is a...
