If YOU opened a Coin Shop WHAT would you need? I found this post on "If YOU opened a Coin Shop WHAT would you need?" interesting and have...
Yeah, I don't think there's a shortage of silver. I'm not an expert. But what percentage of the population of just say, America, is actually...
Crazy to sell it. Whatever the money gets blown on will be worth about half as much next year. This sounds like a huge regret story in the...
Couldn't agree more. From your added information, this does sound like it could be quite an undertaking, borderline adventure! Keep us posted.
I don't think it's a losing battle. IS recommends replacing their holders every 10-15 years for maximum protection. If you get new ones, it...
656: Great writeup. It soon makes you realize that you just aren't going to be broke one day and starting up a business the next. You either...
A good website!! The only businesses this stinkin little town can support are bars and restaurants. No specialty shop could make it here. No...
It seems like you're ready to do a lot of work for them. I would think they'd be willing to at least give you a good deal on some stuff if not...
Can you take a couple closeup shots of the reeded edges? That can also be a dead give away on these. I believe these are fake also but I'd...
Well, I wouldn't write them off that fast. From what I've heard, the slabs are not air tight. So the IS covers can't hurt them. And, if I ran...

Ok, thanks. Sounds like it would be a better bet to go through a dealer. Will the dealer open the package when it comes back or do I get to? I...
I don't believe NGC does a very good job explaining the grading tiers. I see 5 coin minimum over and over. Many of them look very expensive....
Why don't more people use this or are they unaware? That's pretty nice of them to allow that. I guess one less advantage to being an ANA member...
GDJ: Not to take away from your good write up there, but I believe the TPGs do use at least 5x loupes to grade. I've read it and seen them using...
I think 'some' here tend to try to read into things way too much and pick apart the nicest coins, always lowering the grade in their mind. If I...
Why are the mint's prices so high? What do they do with their profits? I would like to get a 2008 1/2 oz. gold eagle. The mint sells them for...
This is easy. If you had people bidding on them, contact them on the side and make deals. I've done this several times and it saved me money....
People like that which are involved in that gathering are the reason the elections have deteriorated into the total joke they are and what we're...
What about gold proof eagles? I just looked at the half oz. pop. report for 2008 on NGC today and so far they've graded 500 '08 1/2 oz. golds....
