I'm also a fan of dutch silver. The 2 1/2 Gulden denomination seems like a very strange one - any idea what that would have been in US$ around 1944?
I am also interested in having some precious metals in an IRA, but I'm not a big fan of the custodial arrangement that seems to be the only...
There are Mylar sheets too. I would get rid of any PVC sheets just to be on the safe side.
AG-3? Maybe a G4.
I recently picked up 48 medals from a 60 medal set (the Longines Symphonette Great American Events collection). Each of these is 1.2 ounces of...
Those are all fairly common dates, although many are in nice shape. I don't think there are any in that group that are worth enough to justify the...
They aren't? I was under the impression that slabs were airtight and waterproof. Is that not the case? I mean, I'm not stashing coins in the...
Nice find and a good catch!
Before doing that, you might want to double check metal detecting laws in your area and make sure that you're in the clear. Just a thought...
I'm trying to put a value on this Skylab medal. It has reflective surfaces and what appears to be silver toning (not very evident in these...

I use Excel, but I'm putting a few of my items into the HA database & still playing with the NGC database.
The reverse is well done, but the shield seems a bit clunky.
The "new" design looks like two zombies about to attack each other.
After treating bronze disease, wouldn't it make sense to dry the coin completely and put it into an airtight container?
This is why eBay should have an breathalyzer built in. The ridiculous rant that has nothing to do with coins makes my head hurt.
I'm not a fan of the design, so I don't think they'll have long-term aesthetic demand. If past history is any guide, the popularity of the bride...
That's an interesting question. There was a spike in world silver prices around 1907... was that still playing out in 1913?
If it's an error, it could be worth more than the regular issue. I would wait to send it back until you find out more. What's the window of return?
Do you have any more info on that arcade? That sounds like something I would love to visit someday.
