Mark I might go along with you, at least for the past 6 months because of CAC and the market drop. But there is one thing. Other than the past 6...
cupcake - let me relate something to you and then you can think of it what you will. First of all, I am not an expert. And among all of the...
Ahhhh, but this has not always been the case Paul. Remember, you've only been around for a year and that is all you have to base your comments on....
I hadn't read this thread until just now. But even based on the first pic supplied the first thing that went thru my mind is - that coin has been...

Get the book Encyclopedia of US Gold Coins 1795-1933 by Garrett & Guth, it talks about how many survive fo rquite a few examples. But another way...
Can you circle what you are calling a copper spot ? There is a lot of glare on the pic, but I see what looks like a purple spot on my monitor at...
