I assume you're talking about things like the Walmart exit checks. I'm sure their response would be that they aren't "checking" "your property",...
All right, that's even too picky for me. :hilarious:
When Harris-Teeter installed a new style of self-checkouts a few months ago, those things were absolutely paranoid. I don't think I ever managed...
But if the ratio is 1-2 or 1-3 right now (1 vintage piece gets you 2 or 3 generics), it's likely to be higher when silver falls back - at that...
That sounds backwards to me. Right now, the rising bullion price has compressed premiums for nicer pieces, which means you'll get less for them...
Well, I hope next time you'll remember to go get pennies instead of falling. ;)
I'm with @ksmooter61 - I don't think those obverse marks are from grinding; I think they're just the texture of whatever the coin was sitting on...
Being in the center of a vault bag should be close enough to "not exposed to air". The coins closest to the bag material would intercept most of...
That happened sometimes even before the cent shortage. I think sometimes the manager on duty just can't be bothered to reload the machines.
Sudden flashback to college days, in the time of "Let's Go Krogering" - my best friend stuck one of the (then fairly new) plastic bags to his door...
Around here, I shop at Food Lion, Harris-Teeter (part of the Kroger kingdom), and Aldi. Aldi runs nearly everyone through self-checkout, and the...
My first silver dollar was a gift from my grandfather. He went to the bank and withdrew a dollar for each grandchild. Face value. I wasn't...
Okay, in light of that comparison photo, it's hard for me to imagine that this was ever a legitimate coin. Could we see an edge photo? I'm...
I will make small bets against that by selling some of my silver if buy prices catch up to spot prices at current levels (instead of the 10% or...
...aaaand it's back up near its all-time high.
I don't think this shop gets many folks with that little judgement and that much money. They may get some folks that, how to say this,...
That's... wow. Nope, I'm not sure I could reproduce this if I tried. I've certainly seen stuff crystallize looking like that. But to make metal...
Huh, I always thought that stood for Finger Up. At least, that's what I'm giving them on this.
Depends on the application. Silver is most conductive by volume, but it's only about 6% more conductive than copper, while costing well over 100...
Silver continues to PLUMMET today, sinking to lows not seen since (checks notes) um, Monday?
