Aw, that is sad to hear. I like earlier Russian coins quite a bit.
I say the first one does the best job of balancing grade, luster, and color. The second makes the coin look like it is severely lacking luster,...
I apologize if I misspoke. I had read years ago that the coin appeared in Farouk's sale and the US government had not issued any export licenses...
All of this could have been solved almost 80 years ago if the dealer really think he had a case. Numismatic coins were never part of the gold...
Is it always? I have not studied the history of the margin requirements at the CME and the timing versus market activity. Has margin easing never...
TYVM for posting the article. I enjoyed it. I still defend the governments position and say his argument is tenuous at best. On a jury I would...
I will say this again, the CME is not the only silver market in the world. Do silver price manipulation believers saying the same people who...
But I thought the government had proof that they never sent 1933 Doubles to the exchange window. That was the basis of their case. To be sent to...
I am Creek, so no matter what name white men give to me it will not matter. I use whatever term I feel others will understand. The fact we...
I am sorry, but I am half indian, (ancestors on the "trail of tears") and I resent the comparison. You are trying to say these heirs cannot profit...
Everyone feels that way Woody, and thinks exactly in your terms. You think you bought at 11, but that was years ago so how much is that in todays...

Just a reminder, any and all things stated about not cleaning coins by modern coin collectors do not apply to ancients, especially uncleaned...
Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that started with their decimalization. At that point their old penny stopped since it was a complete remake...
I agree man, I would love silver to drop like a rock. The thought of buying large quantities of material I have recently become interested in...
I was surprised a little that you thought netiher were VF understrict standards. I consider myself fairly strict, but thought coin two, when all...
I understand your feeling, but when? If it hit $50 this year I would sell some, if it hit $50 in 4 years probably not. Remember every year these...
Good point. I would never tell especially a new collector to buy all uncirculated coins. Where is the fun, the connection? With circulated coins...
Quarter comes right from the coin, so no arguing there to me. Nickel is to tell the TYPE of five cent piece, since when they came out there were...
I voted cent since the Mint Act specified a cent and half cent, and the proper abbreviation for a penny is "d", for denarius. Since the real penny...
Separate names with a comma.
