ATB sets are five 5-OzT coins. 25 OzT per set. What I don't like about this is that they're only accepting wires. Int'l wire transfers cost me...
Passant, I'm going to assume that you have a basic understanding of economics and world trade modeling. If we remove fiat currencies (all of...
Given that you're new to the forum, I guess it's excusable that you didn't know where I put the profits from silver. I moved out of physical and...
I'm pretty sure that the last year HAS been "an explosive parabolic move" in the price of silver. It hasn't been as ridiculous as the market...
You're not really paying customs on the service, but rather on the value added. Think of it this way: You own the coins. (You _might_ have to...
I'm fairly certain that the "TIPS" recommendations were based upon long-term inflation hedges in extreme environments. I, for one, started selling...
Condition-wise, I'd say VF30, except for that weird wear spot leading off the M on the obverse. That might push it down somewhat. Merc's VF25/30...
If anyone else finds lead fishing weights, seriously, sell them on craigslist in the sporting good section. Buyers regularly offer 50c or more, so...
Is it just me, or does the spacing on the "5" look offset compared to everything else?

This is the last time that I'm replying to this thread, as it's starting to feel like you won't stop asking until someone tells you that you have...
I think you just answered the original question... you want to know if it's a rare proof 1990s Lincoln missing the "s" mintmark. If a proof were...
I wouldn't crack that coin out... it looks like there's a thumbprint on Q4 (lower-right corner) of the obverse.
I don't see how it would be considered AT. The toning looks even and at the ridges, it looks like it "creeps" onto the next surface, which is an...
If your goal is to get industrial metals under spot, go buy used fishing lead. You can get it from most individuals (fairly readily) for 50c or...
A Proof would have stronger frosting in the raised surfaces and a shinier finish in the fields.
jmon, I had to go and "View Post" each of K2's posts in order to quote them. Having him on my ignore list is a nuisance with regard to that....
I looked at your scans, and all I saw was some black spots and areas where there were compression marks. Nothing that looked like an overstrike or...
[ATTACH] Woo hoo! At least one of my scanners is old enough to copy US currency. :P (I wrote "COPY" on the bottom so that I don't end up...
