every collector ought to own a few medals. I've got one of Aphrodite done in 1828 by Anton Bovy when he was an apprentive to James Pradier in...
I have a bottle of stuff that is some sort of clay suspension, it's a thick liquid that you put on slabs then polish and it removes all the...
Have to disagree with you there, --the coin sold for $338 which is $1800 an ounce gold. If you take the $17 grading fee and factor in prorated...

Why do I get this feeling that 2,500 years from now Roman bronze coins will be more plentiful and well preserved than current zinc Lincoln cents?...
