1936 Gobrecht Dollar $1 PR Proof VF Details PCGS I still can't muster much enthusiasm for the Seated Liberty obverse design, but I love that...
In the new concrete patio you're getting poured, I hope? :)
Easy to argue with any random shot of a toned coin, but harder to argue with an old-style slab. :) Nice catch!
Man, I wish I could find a bank that would order bags of Ikes for me. Then again, it's not like I've spent much effort looking.
Oh my gosh, I think I remember that! The store I'm thinking of was called "Two Guys", in west-central Maryland. Actually, I just realized that I...
That's a gold bean, right? Between that, the color, and the provenance (still having the BMM cardboard flip!), I'm not sure he's being all that...
I understand that you may not be happy with the answers you got in the previous thread, but starting another identical thread in the same forum...
I have never calibrated this scale. Not even once.
About.com claims, without citation, a tolerance of +/- 0.259g for the 1964 Kennedy. (Oddly, they say current silver proof halves have a tolerance...
It's not your fault. I'm in the middle of a round of interviews, and suddenly All is Srs Business. I'll get better soon. ;)

I use eBay, because it forces its dealers to stand behind their sales and provide a refund if a coin is proven (in timely fashion) to be fake, and...
Dear eBay coin buyer, I'm glad you were happy. Thanks for leaving feedback saying so. ;)
I agree. I just saw that we were heading for a point where more than half the posts were talking about a 1903-S, and I, like you, didn't want to...
Guys, I think we're getting into the weeds a bit here. @Jayp978, this looks like a low-grade and damaged coin. The apparent damage to the last...
Your arithmetic is correct, but I think assuming only 5% accuracy for even these cheap scales is pretty harsh. I would expect absolute accuracy as...
For what it's worth, here's the "documentation" that came with my scale. It's apparently the "300AX" model, according to this card. (Enlarged for...
That's a typo in the description, or copy-pasted from one of their .1g scales. Trust me, the scale has .01g resolution. The last digit is...
Separate names with a comma.
