To me this is a tough question. I own maybe 2-3,000 ounces of junk, (don't judge me that I don't know lol). So I basically stopped buying it, its...
I would agree. Do not recall the reverse, (looks Republican), and extreme mushiness of details.
Excellent post sir. For all of Cointalk I thank you. Great to have real experts on here. I am not an expert on these, the only thing I noticed was...
I disagree with your premise that the incumbent idea, "In God We Trust" on coinage, basically the same as "Under God" in the pledge, has to have...
While I agree the price would never cross my mind, it is an exceptional coin. I have never seen an example even close to this level of...
Guilty. I watch those shows and can relate, not to garbage or anything, but the pain they go through losing their possessions. I would be that...
I would be a third path in this state quarter discussion, (btw excellent point about cent collectors of years ago being the same). To me,...

I thought I knew a lot of new phrases, but had never run into that one. I thought he was saying MILF and left off the F. Acronyms are a funny...
I guess I am more strict when I call something a "variety" versus an "error" like the 55 DDO. Under my definition, I like the raised mound buffalo...
I guess I am old. What is a "MIL"
Very nice quote from my favorite President, Thomas Jefferson. I hope the world can forgive his misguided twisting of John Locke's wonderful "Life,...
