I stand corrected, then. Goes to show that I'm not part of the market for these. :oops:
That is a $2.50 Sesquicentennial gold, right? With gold a bit under $2000, that puts 1.1 melt around $275. If they're selling multiples of this...
Yeah, and I once found an 1895-O Morgan in with the commons at a pawnshop. The occasional rip or cherry-pick doesn't really disprove the thesis,...
I'd be reluctant to pay almost 1.5x face for a gold restrike, especially at that size. I'm pretty sure I had someone offer me one below melt at a...
See above. My guy was trying to get away to see the Battle of the Blues. It's kind of a big deal around here. (apparently) :rolleyes: Edit: I did...
Unfortunately my Morgan guy was already packing up to go watch the game. Maybe next time.
Yep. I haven't lost a penny, in realized losses. In 2008, my 403(b) lost half its value. It came back over the next couple of years, and the...
I wish this were true. But it seems like people have decided that software just naturally never works completely correctly, and that it's more...
I flipped my MS62 Peace dollar last year, figuring the price was likely peaking. We'll see. I think I'll take some of my 1921 Morgans to the show...
I try to allow ads to support the sites I like, but some of the ad behavior is getting intolerable. If you find CoinTalk valuable to your...
It seems to me you'd never get past defining productivity. I work as a software developer. One could argue that I've "produced" nothing...
I know there are plenty of people who believe that gold is the only true measure of value. I don't share that belief. I also don't believe that...
So that time in 2011 when I bought silver from one dealer at 25x, walked it over to the next aisle, and sold it at 26x five minutes later... a 4%...
Stock market drops 1%: "boy I'm glad I sold all my stocks" BTC drops 9%: "boy I'm glad I'm holding BTC, gonna buy more!" I don't think it's the...
That oil-puddle orange on the fields also appears in low points of the cap, making it look like the design is sinking into the fields. I don't...
Man, I'm so glad I've only had to deal with decimal currency. It almost makes up for rejecting the metric system.
$7000 per ounce, driven entirely by the dollar's devaluation, would mean the dollar is worth a bit more than a quarter of its present value. I...
So, they've got the gun to the head of their populace, and they're voting on whether to pull the trigger?
And I suppose the self-checkouts at the grocery store could be facial-IDing me with their built-in cameras as they scan the serial number of each...
...for BTC, but not for equities? ...for equities, but volatility in BTC is great?
