Forgive me for nitpicking here, but I'm a bit of a lighting geek, and I can't help myself. :) I'm guessing that most good numismatic references...
I'd first seen it as "Not Issued For Circulation", which seems more descriptive to me. "Intent" is fuzzy -- who didn't intend for them to be...
What in the world do they use to strike it?!!?
Yep, if you hang out enough in the Buy It Now listings, you occasionally get a real steal. Some of them turn out to be bogus -- there was one guy...
Why would they melt a $5 numismatic item to get maybe 25 cents worth of copper?
$165.60 for 69 dimes? That's precisely 2.4x face, by my calculation -- and a good rate, given that current melt is around 2.45x face. I'm not...
Current melt value is $12.41. The cleaning/polishing destroyed any numismatic value, but it's one of the most common dates anyhow -- even if it...
That 1937 half in the second shot looks outstanding! The half at the right of the first shot also looks promising, but we'd need a closer shot to...
BTW, you can Report This Item as Fraudulent. If they've really sold 90-odd of them already, that's 90-odd transactions that eBay and PayPal will...
Location: China, Hong Kong If this is like similar auctions I've seen, you can Google the text, and it'll point you to the original eBay auction...
Wow, someone just paid almost six bucks for 30 cents worth of copper (maybe) and a few pennies worth of silver plating. Then again, I guess you...
That doesn't sound like my experience with crooked PayPal deals. In my experience, the buyer won the auction, sent the funds, then WITHIN AN HOUR...
1945-P Liberty Walking Halve Dollar Brilliant Unc. This uncirculated 1945-P Liberty Walking Halve Dollar is a very nice coin with mint state...
Right place at the right time, all the way. :) If I were retired, I'd be tempted to camp out by a CoinStar during the day and just intercept the...
:scratch: When the seller gets my payment, it's a certain number of dollars. It has no other distinguishing characteristics. You check your...
Somebody needs to point out to eBay that "No Chemicals are used to tone my coins" is a FALSE CLAIM. Oxygen is a chemical. When you heat a coin in...
So... you're looking for a venue with few sellers, but lots of uneducated buyers, willing to pay a premium (non-competitive) price for common...
Psst. You can't leave him a negative anyhow -- eBay removed the seller's right to leave negative feedback more than a year ago. As a seller, you...
...or you might end up starting a thread like this one: http://www.cointalk.com/t172193/ and even a follow-up: http://www.cointalk.com/t175499/
I'm a little afraid that roll of 1913 Type I's will turn out to be dateless culls -- even if the date is gone, it's easy to identify them from the...
