I have never seen roosters trade hands between knowledgable dealers and collectors for more than a few bucks over melt. Basically multiply weight...
I got the envelope a couple of days ago. I got 5 out of the 6 I ordered.
Its kind of an open secret. All of us here probably own fakes. I am not talking about your black cabinet, but coins you think are real but aren't....
Maybe the post meant coins that someone bought from the seller were sent in to NGC and NGC refused to grade them. NGC would have no idea who the...
@Algo , just so you know Mr. Murphy is a well respected ancient numismatist. Most of us here would abide by his judgment sir. I know its hard to...
I know sir, (and apologizing to OP for hijacking too), but we all have to understand words are only part of meaning. I have done the same sir,...
Problem with internet forums is no one can see your face. Seeing a person changes how people take things. :)
I think its a cool little collection sir. I admit I have never paid attention much to the dates and what is available. I have bought them when my...
Dryer coin? Are the rims upset?
OP, for some reason my eye does not much like the look of coin #1. My eye, from a couple of decades of looking at good coins, usually knows a lot...

What do you do with the modern US stuff? My neighbor, and early MD in the 70's, used to take any face value coins, put them in a old butter churn...
Many times such attributions are "vanity" attributions. The auction house promises to sell them with the pedigree to get the right to auction them...
OP, don't forget no one will get mad at you for a reasonable offer on Vcoins. If you find something you like priced a little more than you can go,...
Kind of why I left US coins. I had a pretty nice AU collection, (still have actually), SL halves but it was just BORING. Only so much minutia you...
Yeah but... My main concern would be this would further the myth dealers and the TPGs propagate about coins being investments. EVEN IF your coins...
On the OPs question, I think phase of life has something to do with it. I have maybe 2000-3000, (maybe more, I never track) ounces of silver in...
Why is that sir? From what perspective? I agree shows are becoming less popular, but internet has more than made up for that. I don't post in...
Separate names with a comma.
