Wow. Some people spend their time trying to do something meaningful and often against great odds, such as writing the Great American novel (or at...
Well, this is more understandable (and less alarmist). As you know, dominant ideas achieve dominance for a reason: they come to be seen as more...
I tend to like dry humor—particularly over the knee-slapping and painfully obvious emoji stuff. Probably not everyone here is the same way,...
I don't necessarily have a high regard for his knowledge—I'm not that familiar with it—and sometimes his humor is questionable (at least he...
I thought this was funny. And harmless.
Btw, I don't mean to accuse you of making this up. I understand you're being sincere. "Keynes" can be implicit in discussion just as "Newton" can...

I didn't have time to write more earlier. Policies have agency, of course, but their consequences don't—and you know this. I'm not splitting...

Sweet coins! I particularly like the 1798.
I respect and admire your approach and would do the same thing if I were a dealer. But many of us collectors don't have time to go bargain...
Don't you think most of us on this thread would consider ourselves to be good graders? And that, like yourselves, most of us "real collectors" buy...
From CAC's website FAQs: "All PCGS or NGC coins that are submitted to CAC are reviewed for CAC verification whether they have previously been...
I do most of my buying on Heritage (and I'm not a frequent bidder). I know Heritage encourages its sellers to send their better coins to CAC—at...
Seven hours requires some stamina!
