That's my kind of find! Sorry, I meant to say "Well I hope you were honest enough to go straight back to that pawn shop and shared your windfall...
Ow, now I'm seeing spots!
If it's "stamped into the metal deeper than just the surface", how do you remove it without leaving a pit? Or is your "removal" process actually...
WOW. Back over 100x FV for US circulating gold coinage...
That's pretty much what I came here to say. Moving paper with great speed and precision is harder than moving metal with great speed and...
Yeah, I'm still taking other paths to preserve wealth chunks that size. And if I wanted to spend a chunk that size, I'd be tempted go for the XRF...
XRF machines work by sending high-energy (short-wavelength) X-rays into a sample, then measuring lower-energy (longer-wavelength) X-rays that are...
I think of the Sigmas as electromagnetic testers. (Really, all of the things you listed are precious metal verifiers, aren't they? ;)) Moderately...

That, ladies and gentlemen, is what we call "doing it right". :) I slept through the Hunt brothers run-up; if I'd sold some of my junkier...
I don't like privy marks, myself. So the one I dislike least is the one without a privy mark. I think that design for the dual date isn't bad, but...

Type I obverse and reverse, as expected. Dentils look weak in spots on the reverse, but that could just be the photography. I'd dismiss the ST...
Somewhere, a young lady is posting "Some loser insisted on paying with a $2 bill, and I had to take it, but then I gave it back in change to this...
