I'll answer medoraman's post when I am more free, but regarding Bitcoins and hacking, there have been numerous cases of hacking attacks and theft....
Why would the debt ceiling debate have any significant effect on prices, when it is obviously a farce? (They will raise it, as usual). PMs are...
So, what grade should be given to this coin? I am thinking it was sold so cheaply because it is at the border of what is or isn't tolerated for...
As part of the learning curve, one learns to avoid coins with rim nicks. They are also easy to conceal in photos online, hence why eBay can be...
I've seen coins a lot worse than that obverse given MS status by top tier graders. If the reverse is OK, I'd say it might be an Unc. The coin...

A large percentage of the expensive Chinese coins I buy are slabbed. I ease up and focus on seller rep with cheaper coins like 20 cent Dragons....
Yes, it looks and feels like silver. I believe it is an authentic outlier that is much heavier than average. I got this for $19, so it was a...
Absolutely. Here are some pics, showing good detail in parts and wear in others. I'd appreciate any information about this coin beyond what I...
eBay is a good place to sell coins because at times buyers will overpay, somewhat offsetting the fees. Plus you get to enjoy the heavy traffic....
