I feel like I should understand what you mean here, but I don't...? :oops:
I came across my HS and college rings in a box a while back, and weighed them. They're only 10k, and some of that weight is the "stones" (likely...
When you say "smaller (dime size)", do you mean thickness? If that half of the coin is thinner, that and the way the detail is distorted...
I crowed to my wife that the silver dime I found in the CoinStar a month or two ago was worth $3.50 in silver. $7.32 now. I hope the pawn shop...
I'll tolerate PITA if the pay is good enough. (Okay, maybe that didn't come out exactly the way I intended...)
Yeah, this feels quite structurally different from the Hunt Brothers episode. Is it like 2011? Only hindsight will tell...
I think you can get PCGS to do custom labels to your spec if you throw them enough business/money?
I think at this point every dealer is looking to pay as little as possible, for fear of being left high and dry after the wave crests/bubble pops....

Nickel is more reactive than copper, so if anything starts attacking the coin's surface, it can leave areas with more copper, which of course is...
Well, that was short-lived. Today they were at 76x. :rolleyes: Edit to add: and busy. Lots of traffic at the coin counter, although it doesn't...
Well, given that gold was more or less illegal for US citizens to hold at the beginning of the 1970s, this decade is surely different from that one...
Light is coming from the right. If it were a raised lump of metal, there'd be a highlight on the right, and a shadow on the left. If it were a...
I thought a couple of those turned up a few years ago, and were eventually determined to be recent fakes...?
Good chance of that happening tomorrow morning due to one guy giving one speech. Yay team, I guess?
If it's slabbed, how's he going to eat it?

That pricing table from the Mint that I posted a while back shows prices for both finishes. Proof issues definitely carry a higher surcharge than...
