The feedback from the other jars is... odd. Two buyers said they were happy with them, but didn't intend to open them. Shill activity, perhaps?...
By people who "knew" that it was important to clean metal items, and with nitric and sulfuric acid. They certainly do get rid of any surface...
Environmental damage, not gradable, not collectible. Since they aren't in a PCGS or NGC slab, nobody should have any interest in them. ;)
Those coastal snows missed us completely here in the central part of the state. We watched them with some frustration (mostly on behalf of the...
Well, there's at least one big problem here. Suppose you believe that gold is going to double in price, and you want to invest $100K in it (so...
LOL. I hear you. I used to love snow -- but then I spent the record-breaking winters of 93-94 and 95-96 in southeastern PA (Lancaster). Multiple...
I was actually thinking something along that line, but with a different slant. There are a lot of coins like this -- coins that "look different"...
Oh, come now. The copper alone is worth a good 1.8 cents. The gold plating probably brings it up to at least 3 cents, maybe even 4. :) To answer...
You pointed out additional activity that the apparently-bad buyer had with @galleriacoinbuyers: That seller apparently registered here to...
He multi-posted, and the first three posts quoted your original post, rather than @jpcienkus's post. I see that the moderators have cleaned it up,...
He said he would trade a few Roosies for a 1916D Mercury. I'd go further than that -- I'd trade ten Roosies for that 1916D. Unless gold is...
I'm not sure I'd call junk silver trading at 872x face value "nice". For CoinTalk members only, I will offer to sell junk silver at 50% of melt...
Edited in response to multi-post cleanup.
I'm not much of a world collector, but I think I'd hold out for one that's completely real. ;)
So, in your opinion, which set of photos best represents the coin's in-hand appearance?
Or look for a lot that's trading close to face value. I bought "228 Proof State Quarters, $57 Face" for $70 shipped last time around. They turned...
I think we can all agree that it's a GDJMSP58 :) I can't distinguish rub from toning variations in this single pair of photos, though. Could be...
So would I. Of course, if anybody could know that, and post convincing evidence on a public forum like this -- well, it wouldn't be much of a...
Go on... :) What do the 1921 and 1934-S look like?
It looks like it's been cleaned harshly, but still not enough -- those spots on the front look like corrosion in progress, especially the one on...
