/agreed, and in that answer lies yours fiddlehead.
I agree, Nope. Some of us here do know how to do this, and even AT tone a coin to look like NT, but its best left unsaid. Information like...
I agree that you could take it to a show, but I also believe the 1915 is a fake. One of the things I notice is the horn. Especially S mints that...
I have to ask, since this is a bullion forum, isn't this what you are really doing anyway buying PM? I mean, a commodity is independent of any...
Fair enough Chris. I just thought both parties were overstating their case a little. I try to correct mistatements for the benefit of lurkers as...
Well put. I would add grading is similarly just an opinion, but one in which concrete evidence is present, and has a much more narrow error...
I would think the easiest would be just to have a bank account denominated in a foreign currency. You can just wire funds into it. THis is the...

Penguin....now THAT is a tough coin. I thought my animal was bad, a rhino on an ancient coin. I have a few, but they are all quadrans of Domitian,...
I would immediately remove from the cases, and immerse in distilled water. They can sit in the water indefinitely while you uncase the rest. Once...
