See this thread by Mark Feld. Personally I think it teaches you to be more aware of the costing aspect of collecting. I have sold one coin back...
I would guess it would depend on the album, the storage conditions and the cleaning of the coin. So I can't really answer that question.
What grade is the coin and what does it look like? Kind of makes a difference on my guess.
Sorry, but this is the petite head with small letters. Notice the dull rounded bust. I am leaning towards an N-2 r1. See here for examples. Enjoy...
Oops - I see your sig line, but I just tend to forget about them. :)
Yep - but only in the open section or thru PM's.
I think the whole key is knowing what you are doing. I would also be interested in seeing what goes on without the cameras - do they still call...
Glad you bumped the other thread - found this one off of it. Nice coins T$.

Vines and bars. And yes thanks Edward, that is what I will list it as. The worst part about it is the local shop almost seemed disappointed that...
I agree the fun of searching is enough. I check all my pocket change, but have yet to get a bag to search. I can't imagine doing 1000's of...
I agree - sometimes I get over excited when I actually have some to talk to about coins. I also am smart enough to know I need to listen when the...
I think it depends on the items. So of them seem to have a small set of collectors. Did you see the $10 notes they bought that one time? They...
Well I personally do not feel they are ripping anybody off. They have to make money to stay in business. It seems like they average around 50% of...
