Well, I am not "admitting" anything. I use my credit card since it does not allow bank access to my account, but pay it off every month. I do not...
Well, my response would be the real USD is US bonds. Currency and coinage are simply US bonds bearing zero interest, so they are horrible long...
Debit/Credit cards are merely another instrument in which to transmit USD's. Using them changes nothing. If/when they transmit ounces of silver or...
I would disagree sir. I can go to any major show and find probably 30 coins EASILY that are overgraded. Are you saying a collector should ignore...
69 to 70 is easier than 68 to 69, or 67 to 68. Usually 69 to 70 is a single mark. I would like to see someone who will always agree with a TPG...
Regarding MS 70 coins. If you like them, if you want a registry set, if you can tell the difference and that tiny imperfection bothers you, please...
Or in person at shows. Silver dollars have always had premiums. People just like huge silver coins in nice shape with "old" dates. Back when...

I have read on NGC and PCGS, (belong to NGC I believe), but don't post. While I respect many experts there the in depth knowledge, many are cruel...
Thanks for the clarification. I knew limes were made on the boundary up by Cologne, but thought the term could be used for any contemporary...
A lot of these guys keep most of the stuff in SDB and the like also. They don't have much of a need to have stock on hand, since they get few walk...
I understand Doug, but I was advocating looking at all CBH's, and from that maybe he could gleam why some coins were slabbed, why some were...
Tough one. Particularly tough for me since I always had a thing for both redheads and librarian type girls. So, I would choose Mary Ann since she...
If the darker one had good surfaces in hand that one only. I bet you a denari the lighter one used to look like, or even much darker, than the...
