Denticals are even but appear oddly weak 7:30 - 9:00 Rim width looks good but unusually sharp, which is doubly odd with the weak denticals. Since...
I don't think the planchets on those three are as nice as on the OP coin (especially the NGC), but they do have better detail. But I like them...
Yes they are current, but say nothing about having your bullion struck into coins. Section 5121 cover converting your bullion into bars for you,...
Very few PICTURES of high grade coins cost more then actual examples of lower grade either raw or slabbed. Because no one is likely to try and...
Redfield hoard, about 300 bags, the Continental bank hoard, 1500 bags. I'm sure there are others (not including the GSA hoard almost 3000 bags)....
It isn't so much that the Fed plls the Ikes, it's just that once they get there they never leave again because the order forms that the banks have...

If you see silver on an end then statistically it should have a higher chance of having more, but just because you don't see any would not be a...
No, I'm not being sarcastic. Yes I am "The slab guy" and I probably know more about the slabs and companies than most anyone around. I am also...
I don't haggle. I will ask "What is your best price" and then I will either take it or pass. I never counteroffer. I asked for his best and if...
