Personally, why not sell off the other coins you have in the set and keep the set? I have done that a few times, (well the Chris version, I have...
Dang it, missed it by a century. :(
Looks more like a condor token. Flan and die definitely not ancient, more 18th century.
To quote a great man: "You heard about it and didn't tell me?"
Fair enough. I am nervous as well about 401k's and other savings that may appear appetizing to the politicians. As Maggie Thatcher once said, "The...
You must have a really nice bank. My large SDB runs me $125 a year. :(
Nice post, but can I ask why you believe its "not to be repeated"? What is stopping the president, if he runs into trouble, of simply...
Advice I would and could never disagree with. :)
The Shoshana sale? Yeah, it was in all of the coin magazines for months, (NN, WCN, The Celator, etc). I didn't know you were that into ancient...
It was a very nice collection. I heard that it went fairly well. These jewish war shekles are neat. They were overstruck on Roman denari. Many...
Does anyone have experience with the kinds of conditions in expect in SDBs. Before I only kept junk in them, but now have decent coins. I know it...

Just saying, Ruben, that the means of communicating in NYC, (maybe Jersey, Philly, and possibly Boston), is different than the rest of the...
Good point. I wonder what conditions my coins in a SDB will be. Should I put dessicant in the box, or do they usually control for humidity?
There is that Brooklyn attitude again, don't know whether to explain myself, ignore it, protest I am not pouting, or punch you in the mouth.....I...
Well, like Yoda always says, the difference between damage and market acceptable bag marks is a judgment call. :)
Why slabbed at all? Most collectors should be able to grade circulated examples themselves easily. If not, practice practice practice. Its a skill...
I think they gave a pass because its a lustrous, pretty coin. Btw, I would not disagree with you paying a premium BU, its very pretty. Even with...
I would personally kind of like the coin at $66. It is a very pretty 63, if one can overlook the dings. No way for $265. :(
I would say that would be ther other option if they didn't give it a grade Ruben. I was debating the same, but thought they would deduct and net...
