Gold, actually, but yeah, a new strike. Apparently 70s aren't nearly as prevalent for this issue as they are for ASEs or AGEs, though...?
So the coin you posted was for sale at 1.1x melt recently, but you didn't buy it? Or it's one you bought 5+ years ago? (Not trying to be hostile,...
There's never been a better time to be selling a house, at least around here, and at least if you don't have to buy another one. I don't know...
I stand corrected, then. Goes to show that I'm not part of the market for these. :oops:
That is a $2.50 Sesquicentennial gold, right? With gold a bit under $2000, that puts 1.1 melt around $275. If they're selling multiples of this...
Yeah, and I once found an 1895-O Morgan in with the commons at a pawnshop. The occasional rip or cherry-pick doesn't really disprove the thesis,...
I'd be reluctant to pay almost 1.5x face for a gold restrike, especially at that size. I'm pretty sure I had someone offer me one below melt at a...
See above. My guy was trying to get away to see the Battle of the Blues. It's kind of a big deal around here. (apparently) :rolleyes: Edit: I did...
Unfortunately my Morgan guy was already packing up to go watch the game. Maybe next time.
Yep. I haven't lost a penny, in realized losses. In 2008, my 403(b) lost half its value. It came back over the next couple of years, and the...
I wish this were true. But it seems like people have decided that software just naturally never works completely correctly, and that it's more...
I flipped my MS62 Peace dollar last year, figuring the price was likely peaking. We'll see. I think I'll take some of my 1921 Morgans to the show...
I try to allow ads to support the sites I like, but some of the ad behavior is getting intolerable. If you find CoinTalk valuable to your...
It seems to me you'd never get past defining productivity. I work as a software developer. One could argue that I've "produced" nothing...
I know there are plenty of people who believe that gold is the only true measure of value. I don't share that belief. I also don't believe that...
So that time in 2011 when I bought silver from one dealer at 25x, walked it over to the next aisle, and sold it at 26x five minutes later... a 4%...
Stock market drops 1%: "boy I'm glad I sold all my stocks" BTC drops 9%: "boy I'm glad I'm holding BTC, gonna buy more!" I don't think it's the...
That oil-puddle orange on the fields also appears in low points of the cap, making it look like the design is sinking into the fields. I don't...
Man, I'm so glad I've only had to deal with decimal currency. It almost makes up for rejecting the metric system.
$7000 per ounce, driven entirely by the dollar's devaluation, would mean the dollar is worth a bit more than a quarter of its present value. I...
Separate names with a comma.
