I had to laugh when I saw this: 1969-S Lincoln Cent - Brilliant Uncirculated - Strike Doubled JUNK & WORTHLESS! So, does anyone here want to...
I've wanted a Saint for a long time, and if I had a chance to buy one at spot, I'd jump. Heck, even the most worn one is a good deal at that price.
This find from last March pales in comparison to some others, but it was plenty big enough for me. [ATTACH] I can't find the original post on...
I was under the impression that the ASE and AGE sourcing regulations were mostly to protect the mining industry. PMs are always "capable of being...
From what I've seen, TPGs are pretty generous with low-grade 16d's. Wear-wise, this seems like a shoo-in for AG03, but I'm not sure what they'd do...
40% always trades at a further discount to melt, and in my experience, holed coins get disproportionately lower offers. I'd be surprised and...
I should clarify after rereading FmrFiatFollower's post -- if you're using desiccant as well as heat, I'm sure you won't have any humidity-related...
:eek: I'm alarmed at the "Goldenrod" thing. First, I'm alarmed at the notion of putting a heat generator inside an enclosed space like a safe....

$6.00 for a silver half is about half the silver value. That means they're worth at least $12.00 each, and can be worth much more if they're rare...
And because there's no such thing as a fake slab...?
The link is dead, and I can't seem to find it from the homepage (I'm not a subscriber). Maybe a summary?
I'd think you'd have to work very hard to find someone who understands Roman numerals but doesn't understand Arabic numerals.
So you're saying that the key to a continuing supply of naturally-toned coins is a combination of ignorance (people don't know what causes it) and...
Can we get some expository info with each post, please? Like, in ikandiggit's post, is that the Horseman of War? (Looks like it could pass for...
This. Opine about a coin's subjective virtues all you want, but don't call it "grading". I'd be happy to see grading factored out into a...
Really? I was remembering that even images like the banknote above were getting shot down. I'd be happy to be wrong. I've never much liked the...
Be that as it may, the last time I offered coins with holes that size (or even smaller) to people buying 90% at coin shows, they offered me...
I'm pretty sure that this discussion has been attempted in the past, without success. It's not very rewarding to have the discussion without...
