Take a look at any ten slabbed AG-VG 1916-D dimes on eBay, compare them to your favorite grading guide, and get back to us on "TPG neutrality". :)
That... that is flat creepy. I'd love to have it, except that I'm not sure I'd be able to sleep knowing it was under my roof...
I'm with the guy in Sarasota. :rolleyes:
Oh, I'm pleased, all right. Kinda takes the sting out of paying $730 for $700 worth of silver value, and then watching silver plummet -- silver...
I was kinda making fun of the listing; it's obviously an 1872 in-hand. As I get older, though, I'm gaining an appreciation for the "old eyes can't...
Well, geeze, these photos looked pretty good until I uploaded them. I have a feeling I'm goofing on the color profile or something. I'll leave...
I... honestly don't know, so I assume the worst. There are definitely some hairline scratches; I don't know whether they could squeak by under...

I wonder if the same changes that would let them accept silver coins would also let them accept certain classes of foreign coins they don't want?...
Keep the albumin (egg protein) away from silver! Autocorrect doesn't know much about chemistry. :) On a more serious note, I don't believe the...
Looks like a job for acetone to me...

Hey, my latest "esoteric" purchase came in the mail today! [ATTACH] Got it for about 25% under melt. Hoping to use it for some electrolysis...
I'd buy these out of change drawers all day long! :) eBay has recently added a feature that I've wanted for many years -- if you do a search...
I'm sure you can find coins this nice in bargain bins frequently, but they'll be 1937's. I'm also sure you can occasionally find a coin this nice...
Even if it meant going back to the salary you were getting back then? :devil:
Yup, 1 troy ounce is 1.097 avoirdupois ounces, and 1.12 is close enough to 1.097.
Heh. Coin collecting might be the least esoteric of my interests. I've been a science geek since I could read, and they tell me I started to read...
That may be how they get shipped out to banks, but at least in Maryland and Virginia (and now North Carolina), I still see plenty of D-mint coins....
I'd gladly accept a busted coin series in exchange for a few more years of a post-presidential life as well-spent as his.
