The Whole Earth Catalog?
It's true, you never need a crystal ball -- all you need is hindsight. :rolleyes: So, anything else you might have expected to soar? Say, T,...
One of my older relatives took up day-trading in retirement. As he described it, "buy things that are going up, sell things that are going down."...
Warning: opinions coming. The worst kind, too: professional opinions. :rolleyes: When I started working on my PhD in human-computer interaction...
Don't! There are annoying things about the newer models, sure, but overall they're pretty much the same. For that matter, for email and Web stuff,...
Thanks for joining, and thanks for staying!
Oh, sorry, guess it looks like I was commenting on the coin. No, I was just commenting on the year 1960, which can't be that old, because it's...

Isn't anyone else concerned about that bump above the date on the 1898-S double eagle? I'm still nervous about the wing detail on the reverse,...
Yeah, now I don't feel so bad about how long I keep coins in jars...
Been there. Hope the aftermath isn't too painful.
Yeah, I'm hoping it was being bid up by a couple of people trying to make sure the seller doesn't get away with it. Both listings now gone.
In a bad mood tonight?
Sure, if they straight grade to something higher than 63 or 64. Below that, isn't a common date's value just a small premium above melt, assuming...
I'd definitely be tempted to get them slabbed, but I'd be inclined to take advantage of the ongoing CoinTalk special to have ICG do it for $10...
I disagree. Posting the links here won't help them sell, and will help generate enough reports to get them taken down.
