Hey, Medoraman, you can visit the thread at the What's It Worth forum. I will probably give the winner a free Peace dollar, and if there is a tie...
Maybe I will buy from this seller a few choice pieces and sell them for a profit, and take the profit to the Salvation Army for Christmas. I...
Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I was almost about to bail from these forums due to the self-righteousness. I am glad others can see my...
Thanks for your take, green18. Actually, I am concerned at some level with ethical questions, which is why I took the time to write the post. I...
I can look at myself and say that I did nothing wrong. I think this member should have voiced his concerns privately rather than impugn my...
It seems views on this topic, while heated, may differ substantially: http://coins.about.com/b/2007/07/21/coin-dealer-ethics-cherrypicking.htm
I am interested in some opinions on buyer ethical matters. Recently, I got harangued in another thread for revealing that I bought some key...
So, again, it's not a swindle when the pawn shop pays elderly people a fraction of what their gold is worth, but it's a swindle when I do it to...
For the record, I would never do this to a friend or vulnerable individual I encountered. This is a pawn shop that makes its living taking...

As an update, I landed a high-grade 1928-P Peace dollar for $50, a high-grade 1921 Peace dollar for $30, and a high-grade 1928-S Peace dollar for...
I picked this up from a very trustworthy seller on eBay for $75. I am wondering why it is so shiny. I suspect it has been cleaned, but the...
Silver is in a long-term bull market because there are continuous commodity inflation pressures, IMO. As I pointed out before, investing in...
My bet is that it will hit MS61, though the dirty fingerprints may knock it to AU58 or even AU55, depending on the tendencies of the...
I might get this coin certified just for the hell of it, though. In fairness I will grant that the pics I put were not the best. I know this...
Yes, I will be honest and admit I thought it might be in the low MS range, not because I necessarily believe it is mint state, but because the...
I agree it is a nice coin. AU or not, it has better eye appeal than some of my certified MS Peace dollars.
I disagree that it is in the low AU area, and suspect if it is AU it is in the high range. I picked this up at a pawn shop and it seemed the...
