I appreciate @Rich Beale answering all the questions so candidly. I would also appreciate it if he let me bid on all Probus coins exclusively so...
Do you think we are we nearing bottom in the market?
I need to attribute some recent purchases from the Atlanta ANA show. I’m also removing my coins from an album and placing in the standard 2x2 red...
I enjoy handwriting my own 2x2 inserts with all of the normal attribution info on the front. On the back I detail when and where I purchased and...
Can’t wait to see those all cleaned up. That’s exciting.
I don’t know where you live but I know an honest, well respected dealer in Georgia that can help (PM if you need his info). There’s also the ANA...

Very cool. I see some ancients dealers I really like so I’ll be attending one of those days. Be sure to stop by and see Steve Damron. I mainly buy...
I always appreciate provenance info no matter how trivial. Even if I’m buying from eBay or a retailer I record source name, date, and price paid...
The truth of reality is too difficult to accept or just not interesting enough to some so these ideas take shape. The flat earthers are just a...
Oh, I see now. Thanks for pointing that out. That really does stink. He’s always very helpful and pleasant. Hope he’s back soon.
That’s strange. Are we sure he’s banned? I cannot tell by looking at his profile. Seems active currently.
I landed two Severan dynasty coins. Excited to add them to my collection. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The Guardhouse flips are still rigid they just don’t seem as brittle as Saflips. They are also archival safe. Both are great brands.
I also prefer the Guardhouse flips over the Saflips. Guardhouse is thicker, less brittle, and has rounded edges. Some even come with their own...
