I would sell it as a David Hall PF70 piece personally. :D
MOrgans have always carried premiums to junk silver. Anyone buying silver dollars at melt has gotten lucky. Heck, I was paying $6-7 per morgan...
No guesses on my end. I would think long term it could not stay much below $15 or so due to mining costs, but even that is just speculation. I...
Ouch, as of right this second silver just broke below $20 an ounce. YTD silver loss: 34.4%. Brutal.
Viva la Revolucion!
Sorry if i was smart earlier Bill. If you are looking at a specific bidding strategy, i would try laddering. Creating a ladder will enable you to...

Sorry I didn't see this thread. I answered you on the other thread about the Prasat Rama III coin. I have a few dozen of these, and every major...
Yes. They are called pod duang. They were issued from the Ayuttaya period through Rama V. Most Rama V issues though were ceremonial in nature, and...
Looks genuine but corroded from being buried in the dirt and with bronze disease.
I guess my opinion would be anything that has an issue price above the going rate for a ASE or Maple Leaf would be a collectible. So I would...
I understand, and I was jesting with him as well. Maybe it didn't come across that way. If it didn't I apologize. :(
