I saw some of the same going on when I was at the show in 2018 (or 2017?). Just ignored those guys and went to other tables. Found some good deals...
I mean, it's always nice to weigh down your safe so that thieves can't carry it without breaking their back. But there are more sightly (&...
That's certainly a valid way to look at buying power. Alternately, how much computing power, viagra, or steak could $20 have bought in 1921 (vs...
This medal/plaque recently came into my possession. The seller's photos very much downplayed the verdigris spots that blemish the obverse, and I'm...
The die chip preceeding the B in PLURIBUS & after the E in ONE seem pretty distinctive, but I haven't found a match yet.
I picked it up for $156. Why I always check the bullion pile for neat stuff. Any idea what the mintage was?

There are also some details transferred that I'm trying to figure out if come from PMD or from die damage. In particular, the AT on STATES & the...
I noticed some doubling on this coin right out the gate, but can't find the corresponding VAM. Does anything pop out for y'all? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
I've picked up a few of the 1oz Norfed rounds, but hadn't seen a 5oz example before. Have you seen many of these? Do they carry much of a premium?...
Thought I'd give this a bump and see if it gets any fresh input.
Is this clash in the field to the right of the eagle the telltale for VAM 1c? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Other than eliminating a lot of former Spanish colonies punch marks (& finding that Puerto Rico did use some early American coins with...
Some of the more common merchant punches are cataloged in the token guidebooks. But, to me, this seems almost like the revolutionary South...
Nothing screams counterfeit about those to me, but an induction test showing their silver content at 90% would be a stronger indicator. Few...
