Because a tenfold return is a tenfold return, and if all you have is $17 or $170, then that's what you put in. How would you go about buying $17...
I have no idea why you'd say this. It's like saying the average person can't afford to buy copper because it's over $7000 a ton. If you want to...
Nah, just drilling for oil. :rolleyes: (BTW, one small clarification to the article's first paragraph: cesium metal will, indeed, "melt in your...
The word COPY looks like it's raised, not incuse. That would have to mean it was stamped into the die, not onto the coin. Also, if it were...
Only if you stack enough of it, quickly enough. For "explosive in small quantities" I'd go with cesium. Or, if you can't count on having water...
Is it the right thickness? I've got a Morgan that's non-magnetic, the right weight, and about 15% thicker than it should be. I suspect mine is...
Oh, yeah, I did find two stuck-together cents in the H-T reject slot last night. I left them.

If I ever get to the point where I wouldn't notice that I'd misplaced forty-six half-eagles, I guess I'd make less of a big deal about a $25K...
Add me to the "pile of Bahamas" team. I saw a dozen or more coins in the reject bin at the local Harris-Teeter a few days ago, and they turned out...
No useful information for you, but I'm super interested in following how this pans out. I have an impression, not very well-informed, that the...
Never met a bridge you didn't light, have you?
Still trying to figure out the best Google search terms for "coins that are not man-made". Free-range organic coins? Divine strikes? Or is this...
So, yeah, a not-so-cunning publicity stunt.
Umm...
Not spark erosion, if it's the same method I'm thinking of. You send a giant pulse of current through a coil surrounding the coin, and it induces...
The little one, nursing underneath?

Very interesting. Not an experiment I'm going to try to duplicate, though -- anhydrous ammonia is one of those chemicals that gets you the DEA's...
Separate names with a comma.
