Ah yes, the luxuries of life during the Great Depression. "Artisan" breads are sold at places like Whole Foods at that price not because of the...
Sorry, I must be dense, I'm still not understanding how they make more money that way. They buy bullion for the price of silver, pay a melting...
Not long ago I won several auctions at Goldberg. In every case but two there was only one other bid besides mine, as I had set my max bid high...
The grade is not the thing, the coin is. A PR70DC 2011 penny is worth 550,000 times less than a G-4 1901-S quarter.
I'm not even referring to selling the coins as coins, but rather buying random junk silver coins for the price of silver as bullion and then...

On teletrade, when a coin gets bid up but then after the auction it says "Was not sold", does that mean there was a reserve that wasn't met? I...
Sounds solid to me.
There are a lot of different variations, I've looked. Never found any that look like this one as either genuine or replica. And like I said, I had...
I don't have any experience with colonials at all. I inheirited this years ago and quickly wrote it off as a replica. Every now and then I get a...
Let's try to rephrase this in a non-controversial manner, because I think the wording of both sides makes it look like there is disagreement when...
