A platinum core wouldn't yield nearly as much profit as a tungsten core. There are tungsten-core fake AGEs out there, and a gold bar would be even...
Oh, platinum and palladium are massively useful in the chemical industry (including pharma). Even more so when their price isn't driven sky-high...
Right, and battery and power-management technology has barely changed at all during that time. :rolleyes: I agree. Plus he's not as ruthless as...
I'll take them. Wouldn't want to see you put yourself at risk of contagion. ;)
I don't think "the CC mint didn't exist in 1847" is revealing a pick-up point that the counterfeiters would never figure out on their own.
I dunno. It's different every time. The thing is, gold will continue to go up and down in value (fight me) -- but the dollar isn't ever going to...
@MatrixMP-9 - his posts and profile are still here, but he hasn't appeared since early 2020. He was talking a lot about that disease we aren't...
Yeah, it was quite obvious once I spotted it.
One of those was one of the last big eBay purchases I made. Pretty sure I'm still underwater on it, even with gold near its highs, just because of...
I can't read the weight in your scale photo, but assuming it's around 12.5g, check the coin's thickness. The last fake WLH I got from eBay checked...
All the way down, or all the way up? It's still less than half the price of gold. If I had to guess, I'd say it's got more upside than downside --...
Be interesting to see income demographics on the folks who lobbied and voted on this legislation, wouldn't it?
I'm not sure what the first thing was, probably something my big brother was doing, maybe for Scouts. But my first clear coin-related memory is my...
That's right. UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS is set in a different (sans-serif) typeface. Eleanor Roosevelt is set in yet a third. It's not...
That's... actually a really interesting question! It's still an uppercase U (it's the same size as the other letters), but the typeface has an...
Just keep them away from fans!
I beg to differ -- that's a very fine Barber coin!
Yeah, it would never be down there. I was seeing what looked like a pretty clear but faint "B" above the highlight, but then a "V" to the right of...
I was all set to say "there's no such thing as a 'weak VDB'", but PCGS makes a liar out of me:...
Apparently I'm in full third-grade-humor mode this morning. Keep them coming!
