Ooh! I see it now. I wonder what kind of monitor I was using to view the pics the first time? Yes, I agree -- casting bubbles.
I agree that they have killed the term "annual", but your set would still be complete - it would consist of all coins minted that fit your...
I can't imagine a coin that meets all of your requirements. Perhaps some PR-70 modern dime that nobody has bothered sending in lots of yet.
I'll be the first to admit that I know nothing of "foreign" coins. I specialize on U.S. mint issues from 1793 to present. I don't know the...
It depends how much time you want to spend. I don't look for any varieties, personally. The modern nickels are nothing special, really. Of...
Well, gee...I could be wrong. When I left selling on eBay, I calculated their new fee structure, including PayPal, to be 15%. Now, if it's 9%,...
Okay, guys/gals. Due to some requests, I will publish my letter here. I have removed certain portions of it, and replaced those with a note that...
I do realize what 1/10,000 of a part is. I have a background in analytical chemistry, including quantitative analysis, so I have a decent grasp of...
There is actually a small chance that this could induce me to start selling on eBay again. I will have to do more research to find out what...
Noost: I'll consider posting a copy of the document here. I may strip it of some of the personal information I've included, but I think I can work...
This thread was inspired by the "Any other wives..." posting. I didn't want to hijack it, so I thought I'd start a new thread. I recently...
To my eye, that's pleasant toning, and a nice coin. A bit of a weak strike, but so many 1950-D nickels were. That's probably a nasty cut on the...
Ruben, I believe these scales are as accurate as they are advertised. I purchased my scale from this site a couple of years ago, and it is...
Trust me when I say that very, very few slabbed coins in slabs from top-tier TPGs are overgraded.
It does sound like you've done your research from textbooks, but often that's not enough. There's theory, and then there's application. I can...
First, why do you need to explain your purchases to your girlfriend? I don't know your relationship with her, but I wouldn't even have mentioned...
What's your purpose in putting them in a cedar-lined chest? Are you trying to tone them? If you're hoping they'll remain untouched, then I'd say...
My wife is supportive. She doesn't understand it, but she believes that I am making reasonable choices when I buy coins, especially when I can...
It was just a suggestion. Maybe you will like the earlier proofs that come without cameo contrast ("brilliant proofs"). They're actually much less...
You asked for your advice because, in your own words, you had a dilemma. If you already have the answer in mind that you want, just just go do...
Separate names with a comma.
