"U" can tell the same way anyone else can -- by using a little common sense. The 1913 Liberty nickel is one of the most infamous coins in all...
Dimes for gas, dimes for gas. Silver, gold and petroleum products have gone up disproportionately to most other tangible goods. The value of the...
I asked for half dollars at one bank, and they said they had some in an envelope. They opened it to check the count before selling them to me, and...
I've seen this seller's auctions before. Here's the bit that stuck in my memory: Well, gee, Mr./Mrs. Seller, is the fixed Buy It Now price...
Lots of camping out on the "Buy It Now"/"newly listed" page will also net you some profit, if you're quick and decisive (and lucky). So will...
At that price (melt), just weigh it on an accurate scale and measure it. If it weighs around 4.18 g, and it's not over diameter or thickness, grab it.
I'm still not buying the "gold is the ultimate reference for value" idea. When gold fell from $700 to $300 in the early 1980s, I certainly didn't...
Can you elaborate on the red flags? I see a coin that looks a little funky, but coming from a seller who's got 100% feedback from selling coins,...
I really like the $5 Constitution commemorative -- both sides just really appeal to me for some reason. Haven't managed to land one yet, though...
I read that at least three times before I saw the second "s". Maybe I should back away from the keyboard for a bit.
Yup, that's why I keep going back. :) I've surely never made out that well, though!
See, that's why you have to pay attention. Those dimes were made before 1964, so they're actually 90% silver. At this morning's prices, they're...
I've often heard the point that an aging population causes problems, because there are more and sicker retirees for the working population to...
I consider the 1894-S a bit of a barrier. :) The 1895-O, while somewhat less than half the price of the 1916-D, is still pretty high for a...
Looks like feedback farming to me. gti2 is always listing silver-by-weight lots that look close to reasonably priced -- until you look at the...
Weren't you saying in another thread that you were a high-level Power Seller? So you're moving thousands a month through eBay, and you're still...
Well, that would sure make ME jump right in on one of their auctions...
Problem is, I like to do wide-open searches -- specifically, most-recent Buy It Nows in US Coins to look for the bargains that get snatched up in...
Two 1982's? For heaven's sake, get them into a safe deposit box! :)
Okay, okay, you're a perfectly rational bidder, you always bid your max, and therefore you have no stress and no regrets. Thing is, you're...
