Ditto. I got some nice stuff, including three purchases that crossed into four-figure territory (more on that in a moment), but thanks to cashing...
I’m sure the dealer who has those is totally hip to all the varieties, so I wouldn’t expect to find stuff like that in his cheapo pick bin material.
Don’t feel bad, Russ. Until three years ago I played only in the lower-price end of the spectrum. Many a FUN show in the early 2000s saw me with...
I wanted to- there were a couple in there that were reverse-side-up, which looked promising. But alas, the dealer was away from the table, and I...
That was me! :)
No, sorry. Basically, the idea is to bend the slab until it cracks. It doesn’t matter so much how you do it, or what you use as a fulcrum. You...
I’ve done it between a door and the doorframe. Your chances of damaging a coin are actually less with my method than with most tool-using methods...
The only way you could screw it up is if you used your bare foot and got plastic shrapnel in your toe. It’s primitive but simple. No tools needed.

Randy and I were so exhausted after walking around the show that we didn’t go out to dinner. Stayed in the hotel room and ordered delivery....
My friend Jason got this nifty counterstamped Ike dollar commemorating the show. But this was not part of the free swag they gave out. I did get...
I flicked 27 C-notes across the table and can now declare “mission accomplished” on finding a problem-free small gold Spanish Colonial cob in the...
@mrweaseluv - this case made me think of you! [ATTACH] Same dealer had some higher-end copper. [ATTACH]
I ran into @TypeCoin971793 on his way out. [ATTACH]
Yes, I had the same thought.
I went back (briefly) to find that table again, but sorry- I failed in that quest. Many dealers are packing up and leaving. Dunno if that was...
My friend Jason from Western North Carolina works in a coin shop in Asheville. That area, as you may know, was among the hardest hit by Hurricane...
@messydesk is photographing the 1793 Bermuda proof penny I bought yesterday, and the 1922 lusterbomb Peace dollar mentioned earlier in this...
I’ll try to go back and find that table.
