Have to agree with this. Ebay can be atrocious in prices for sellers, Vcoins and the like have no guarantee anything sells. An auction is an...
Good to know, thank you. There weren't any 5 & 10s around, but there were similar like Ben Franklin, etc. All I know for a fact is they popped up...
Nice set. Yeah, the gold type set was always the $3 first, then the $1 Type 2 as the keys, at least in terms of scarcity though usually the price...
Like others have opined, I also believe they are fakes. I have literally seen these fakes many times over the years. I believe they were for sale...
I make and sell products sir, like TPGs. I was asking if what was paid for was a normal slabbing service, (look at coin, authenticate it, grade...
Ok, I did not know if there were extra fees for the type of coin or not. My answer was from a business standpoint. Everything costs money, and...
Fair enough. The nature of such boards makes it hard to know when to stop and wait for a response, (like texting or a conversation), or to go...
I am not sure about "laziness" sir. Did you pay some sort of premium for "numismatic research" or did you ask for a graded slab? Sorry, but a...

The one thing I would caution to those who advocate waiting until prices come down would be: What if they don't? There were many times over the...
Just Zeus? Leu, NN, and others have good coins. Heck, I dropped a few k last weekend with NN, I hope the coins are "good".
IDK man, they are interesting. I don't see any flanges which are always present in punch outs. Could be a slug though, or a cut hole remainder,...
Same can be done on Biddr.com with their auctions, with the advantage of constantly changing coins to look at. Many auction firms specialize in...
I agree with Mat there are ways to navigate Ebay. I disagree most semi-knowledgable ancient collectors agree they wouldn't touch Ebay with a 10...
Prices to me seem to be treading water overall. True, summer is always a slow time in auctions and coins in general, so that always could have...
I resemble that remark, except substitute 1970's for 1960's. I just won about 120 coins in an auction from Austria. Sure, sometimes I buy single...
I have used 10 ounce bars in my garage to hold stuff down. I prefer lead bars, but I own a bunch of old 10 ounce Engelhards I have used to glue...
Heck, three is just a start sometimes. I am such a hoarder I intentionally buy multiples. My favorite (worst) story is I always wanted a nice...
Great post, but no mention of Bahrumgur? This leader is famous in Persian history and have a great many stories written about him with this name....
