A couple days ago I watched a real nice 1852 3 cent silver, NGC MS65 go for $645. NGC's guide lists them at $890.
The only people I'm watching for is anyone who looks suspicious or might be following me.
:hatch: Ah no. Not one of these threads again! The last time I gave my opinion I got into trouble. :o
When I got back into this hobby in April 2008, I had <20 coins in my neglected collection from 14 years ago. Now, for what I consider to be...
I believe there are several different levels of quality when it comes to fakes. And there are several different levels of collector experience...
That was a rotten thing to do. I'd let him hear about it. Somebody would ruin a lifelong friendship and trust, a family member no less, over 90...
At what time? mindnight Jan.1st? At noon? Central? Eastern? It fluctuates $10 a day anymore. I'll say $1,215.38.
It's mixed. Too mixed IMO. Predominantly LPS. I love acans. A few easier SPS. Some nice monti caps, monti digis and danae. Zoas. I've got...
Awesome find. I'm a reef geek and a coin collector. (I grow live coral in an aquarium in my kitchen. My main hobby before this.) By any...
I was just going to say the same thing. Coin collecting is nothing new and may have been even more popular with the general public in the past....
All joking aside....... My take on it? I don't see an issue overall. I primarily stick to reading threads that interest me or teach me...
If you're really wondering, there's a couple reasons. First, look at the dates some of the auctions ended. Some of them go back to 2001 or...
Because most of them are decent enough to pass as real unless you're well studied in the series and can notice the very subtle defects. People...
I'm naturally suspicious too but it doesn't look bad to me. There's nothing obvious anyway. The numbers appear to be in the correct format. It...
No doubt. I would buy an ANA 6th edition and form your own opinion. Or, take the key dates at least and send them in. Even if the 16-D is...
lmao! That was funny. Partly because it was your first post. Partly because of how you wrote it. Partly over how you assume we know where...
The ones with no mintmarks are the ones most likely to be counterfeited. So I hope you know how to recognize good fakes. I would stick to...
:kewl::eek::yawn: Stunning. I would hate to guess what the coin equivalent of that list is. That is unbelievable. That $2 battleship and...
I don't agree. It's not the same. The collector has every right to sell something as the dealer does. Only the collector has no overhead and...
And that's a big part of making the profit. Taking advantage of ignorant people. Which essentially removes wealth from families. The same as...
