There may be a little confusion as I merged the 2 threads to eliminate further duplication. Jim
There are several threads here on CT which are very helpful, with the same caveat Hobo and Doug have given ~ that you really need the coin in hand...
Thanks for the photos , they sure help the home bound ones! A couple I have seen for years and can only say I am happy they are active. You of...
It would most likely be returned as damaged, but wouldn't say about the "ONE" as the rim damage would be sufficient to reject. Many coins like...
The 5000 ozs were for 10 of boxes. A single box is 500 ozs and Cpm9ball's math reflects that of a single of those 10 boxes. Jim
Probably OK, and the price may go up when you inquire if they have been following the silver prices. But I would rather pay the eBay or a local...
As worn as the 1864 seems, the "L" might be impossible to identify. As Koinjester indicated, if the left tip of the bust is rounded like the 1862,...
In the catalog, it doesn't give much technical details so here would be my problems 1. 480 x 640 resolution will limit how large the image would...

And I was posting "WooHoo" to a friend :) The non PM portion was all green except for NLY which was down 1 cent, but it is an about 14% yield...
Unfortunately, manufacturers can use titles which give false safety. I searched and found several that use the term "Safe" in them may be made of...
the photos are almost impossible to tell for sure. My guess at the "9" makes me think that the 1970-S is a large date, and the shape of the "6"...
There were other differences also in the marketplace. Even telephone trading was very difficult. Very few people considered a need for PM as a...
One very interesting part of the story was about the Chinese banks savings account in gold. Again, I think that the banks are 100% government (...
I think it is a very good deal for the price. Too fuzzy to grade or authenticate for me, but I would think it might be higher VF range, but I do...
If one may enter a note of caution, I believe ( for what it is worth) that every price increase of silver above $20-26 increases risk strongly. If...
Your ad definitely seemed to be directed to attract dealers ( sort of Freshmeat! call). It would be interesting to see what they put in the...
