Call me a meanie, but I have zero sympathy for such people. If being grumpy allows you to act like this in society, then the world has some more...
Exactly how it should be done. You never know if the potential thief has a weapon, etc. It's not worth getting hurt or losing a life over a coin...
Called the police discretely so they can wait for you outside, check and clear you if nothing is found in a more proper way. The business owner...
Coin collecting could also have died out by then, you never know. For all we know, you could buy a $1000.00 Morgan in high grade today and it ends...
I wouldn't, that's a bad idea. Confrontations like these can escalate and something worse could happen. I'm sure people have died because they...
I wouldn't. Some people should learn the consequences of their own actions.

Honestly, if purely for investing purposes, don't buy a coin for your grandkids to sell 50 years later. 1) They might know anything about coins...
Next time, take a cell phone with you. If this ever happens again, call the police yourself. The owner or person in charge would have some nice...

Hehe, that's why I say all of my coins are worth nothing. :)
I have no profit or losses, I only collect and never sell. The value of the coins do not matter in my collection once they enter my collection....
That's about the ballpark value for a VF 28-S SLQ. I'd say it's a fair price. I wouldn't necessarily say spending 14.50 is a huge investment or an...
Not really, I viewed the full size and I still can't make out any great details on the coin. Need closer pics of the details.
You can usually get common dates for a few bucks in F condition.
What do you mean by slanted, like the off center obverse in the picture? If the reverse looks normal, that's just a misaligned die, these usually...
Looks way better, good job.
Definitely gonna need better pictures.
