Its a fair position to have sir. I may have lost money by getting unlucky on the RP's grading. I am simply confused why you believe the S mints...
Not really an accident, but I was cleaning a group of ancients once and there was a silvered coin in the lot. I thought about pulling it out, but...
No they wouldn't. Trying to use the face value of a gold coin for capital gain calculation has been found repeatedly and consistently to be a tax...
I find the best deals on EBay. I buy better quality lots at times.
My little diamond in the rough I liked to buy was the 27s quarter. Look into it, its a very scarce coin of a short series.
Fair enough sir. I bought 5 sets of the ASE's but still am sure I am short overall. If you count me buying a couple thousand ounces of silver at...
Btw Doug Smith of CT has a lot of information on coin photography for those who don't know that: http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/
Excellent posts. To me it proves a photo of a coin can never be relied on for either authoritative grading, or authentication. I would have called...
As usual I missed it. :( Thanks for setting me straight Randy. :)
So are you just going to leave us hanging Doug?
Very true sir, but I see many of these have bad horn silver coming out of the ground. I am not thinking they are trying to make them shiny more...
If its for an estate and no one wants them, take them to a coin show and get three or four offers for the lot. If its common stuff like bags of...
AU 55. I am guessing they gave it a pass on the cleaning, even though its too harsh for my taste. Nice strike though. :) Edit: Lol, sorry...
Actually I have an opinion to ask this group. What would you do in my situation: 5 sets graded, of the two keys, 5 s's 70, but only 1 RP 70. Of...
Just like you tried to shoot down Cloudsweeper asking him if he even owned bullion and why does he continue to post on threads about bullion? Is...
If I am wrong I will of course retract what I said. Maybe my memory was wrong Rlm. Sorry. I just remembered, (perhaps wrongly), that the 63 was...
Martin, you really collect some beautiful coins. Great taste. I have to admit every time I see Kyme I start to get excited since one of my...
Ace, I would think long term you will be happier with fewer but nicer coins. With that in mind I would do exactly what Gbroke does, take your...
You are? If you factor in inflation, (or time value of money), and had to sell today, you would be ahead? I doubt I would be. Its easy to be ahead...
The better dips sir you do not know they were ever dipped. That is why you do not see it. Again, not advocating it for everyone, but the truth is...
