Ok, my bad I guess. I see posts about: 1. To slab or not to slab 2. 70 point Sheldon system 3. Missing mintmarks 4. Is my 1943 cent for real...
I agree they can be on any gold coin, and have seen them on all, but it just appears to me, and maybe just me, more frequent on the Pandas. When I...
OK, I was just thinking of something like showing coins that the author knows for a fact, (has seen or bought from person admitting they were AT),...
I thought the other 10% was frequently copper and silver, not just copper. I have always heard that the metal preparation on Pandas was not...
From that photo cannot really tell, but appears real. Not that impressive of a coin really, its nice but not that shocking of a find. It always...
Fair enough Doug, but is there one or two posts that could qualify for the FAQ? Then new members could be told just to search there. If there...
I think thats a little harsh. I was simply asking for one thread that most would agree that could be a primer for people new to the discussion....

Coinsnake, I understand your concerns this thread has taken. I think it gets down to the fact may people cannot see the difference easily between...
I wasn't trying to say anything about people who simply wish to have 70 graded coins. My point is the non collectors who so many of these are...
Hammer at an auction does not matter, the dealer made a good buy. If not 2325 from you, he would have got it from someone else. Gorgeous coin,...
Don't forget to check out the college library though. I am serious, many have some excellent collections of numismatic books for research. If...
What would be the difference between uncirculated and bullion? A matte finish?
If you look at Roman coins, there are many coins with the Augusta on them. You could maybe get her intereseted that way, let her read about the...
My crystal ball is broken this week, but my idiot guess would be if they sell out to see them fall in value in the future. I would be interested...
Yeah, I agree Kryponitecomic. Like I have said before, I liked toned coins years ago before they were cool, but its really sad now that many...
