Come again? Tarnish, damage, or even circulation doesn't turn a proof into a non-proof.
Or at least we think they did. If they don't cite their sources, we can't check it ourselves. We can trust that they didn't get some of the...
You can already do it, albeit by hand. Start with a BIN listing, and just cut the price at intervals. If my email from eBay is any indication,...
Yeah, I was only joking, not snarking. I know a bit about electromagnetic properties like permeability and conductivity, a bit more about color...
I've got it! I'll set up a fake CoinStar machine that has an XRF analyzer built in! Of course, customers might start to wonder why it takes five...
Fair enough, but this also means that you miss sellers that are reasonable, fair and honest, but not knowledgeable enough on the item they're...
Seller: "I know this is nice, but I don't know how much anyone will pay for it; let's list it for, oh, double what I hope to get, and see if I get...
Yep. And those must be stated somewhere. But so far, the only citations I can find are to... Coin World Almanac. :rolleyes: Hey, if we got Coin...
And hope you don't get too many slugs as a result. I don't think most machines come with "silver yes/no" knobs, and the more you widen the...

Yes, I'd found that section of the Code, but note that it does not address weight tolerance for any of the coins. (Oddly, it does address the...
That book has been cited here in the past. Does the book say where it got these figures? It seems like the sort of thing that should be published...
I don't see how that casts all Make Offer listings into doubt. You've certainly got to know what you're shopping for, and what price to expect. I...
Maybe, but changing the weight by that amount would break nearly every vending machine or checkout coin slot. It's not going to happen without a...
For one thing, you might want to give it a bit more time to see if someone else will make a higher offer, or buy at full price. I'll sometimes...
They were never popular. They were minted in large quantities, so they were never scarce. They're clad or lower-purity silver, so they were...
Wait, what?
You bet.
Or those mysterious business-strike 1895-P's. Or mint bags of anything from Charlotte or Dahlonega...
And yet, I consider these new Liberty designs a bright spot in the otherwise disappointing offers from the Mint. Different tastes, people. I like...
