Interesting. I see quite a lot of completed eBay auctions for Snow-9 (clashed with half dollar), one or two clashed with a quarter, but no recent...
That Gibraltar 2004 coin looks for all the world like the "disappearing figure" effect that I've seen on fakes...?
Ah, there was a BIN listing on eBay in the last week or so that I wish I'd bookmarked. It was for a few unremarkable coins, BIN at $20 or so, but...
Clearly, you're not a "fringe element nut job". ;) I'm sure any bank would happily accept it and compensate you with a pair of full-value,...
I... what? First, the problem isn't necessarily the slides themselves, but grit that they drag along between themselves and the coins. Second,...
For some reason, people keep selling (and buying) platinum-plated sets of state quarters. Eventually, someone realizes that they don't have any...
Higher capacity is useless for weighing (single) coins, and higher precision is useless for weighing packages. You need two scales. You'll also...
If a seller leaves feedback like that for a buyer -- a positive feedback, the only kind they're allowed to leave, but carrying a negative message...

I wish I understood that better myself. I've got a pretty good background in chemistry, but this gets into metallurgy, and a lot of stuff that I...
Oh, come on. What are the odds against finding two fake quarter eagles in unsearched rolls? They must be astronomical! :rolleyes:
TBH, I haven't dug into genealogy for this. Buffington is an unusual name, but not that unusual, and I wouldn't have any idea how to dig down to...
Hey, we don't mock your compulsions, er, hobbies. ;)
If it was one of the last 200 or so minted, that's exactly what the original owner did. They didn't sell all 900 of the proof issues, so the...
I'll see your 1878-CC dollar and raise you an 1878-P proof: [IMG] [IMG]
Especially as long as people continue to bid much more for an "unsearched wheat roll with a quarter-eagle on the end" than they would pay for a...
