Or just start buying once a month instead of once a week, or whenever you "make the minimum". I'd be a bit surprised, though -- seems like most of...
Coinflation face-value multiplier just dropped below 20 for the first time in a long while. I imagine I'm getting close to underwater on my...
At the risk of resurrecting a dispute from other threads, I'd be inclined to dollar-cost average instead -- in other words, put $20 or $25 a week...
Now, that's a good Mother's Day choice!
And I still don't see how these two statements aren't contradictory: 1) It isn't designed to predict future values. 2) It's designed to determine...
Don't know how I missed this thread the first time around. I think I like the blue-ringed octopus design -- but it really, really ought to have...
Rats, beat me by 30 seconds. :) I was so proud of myself for finding a used copy of an old edition of the Quarters guide, and then I found that...

I'm with Detecto on this one. Regardless of how you feel about "buyers educating themselves", "reading the whole listing", and so forth, we have...

What you actually said was "it would either peripatetic out or be applied in a motley chaotic fashion." I'm not sure what you originally typed,...
I'm not following your analogy. Vacuuming a carpet beats and drags bits out of it, and will eventually wear the carpet out, although that's...
It reacts with hot, concentrated sulfuric acid, but not when it's diluted. Concentrated H2SO4 is enough of an oxidizing agent to bump loose an...
Copper is above silver in the electromotive activity series. Stick a copper item into a solution with silver ions, and the silver WILL plate out...
I'm with you. Water lingers longer on the coin, and as long as it's there, it tends to catalyze reactions with the metal of the coin. Acetone doesn't.
One example: acetone dip (at least for non-copper coins). It removes foreign substances, and doesn't affect the coin material itself -- the metal...
If you're setting a booby-trap -- a deadly device that goes off in your absence, without any action on your part -- you're not protecting...
Putting coins through a rock tumbler. It's a way to destroy coins, and a way to troll for attention on coin forums.
