You can shoot them in the cardboard 2X2s, but you will get better pictures if you take them out. The slabbed coins are tougher. I have the most...
You need to be an amateur lawyer to get through all of the terms and conditions. I wonder what state "Salem" is in? It might be Massachusetts...
That's a nice token. Unfortunately the ship that is docked in Baltimore is not the first Constellation. It is an old ship, but it dates from the...
Other than that there is a 99% chance that it's a counterfeit, there's not thing wrong at all. If it's real it's been cleaned to death in a way...
Smalll shows can be good, but sometimes I get there and there is nothing but Morgan Dollars and modern silver to buy. I have become a bit of a...
