Wow. Looks nicer than a lot of the stripped down 1804s.
Yes. I like the magazine and believe in the mission. I will be watching what they do about the coin doctoring definition (i believe they should...
How many 1890-O's does one man need? I think the new one is about as nice a MS62 as you're going to see. Also like the new 1887. Keep taking...
I had heard, as stated by Doug, that a lot of silver coins are still melted but never really understood the economics of it. Thanks Conder, for...
It sounds like this is your first St. Gaudens so i would go with the nicest example. Based on the photos, I would choose the 14-S. Good luck.
Doug, I could have expressed myself better and you were right for calling me on it. The PCGS Price Guide is a decent place to start if I am...
The PCGS price guide is a better guide for PCGS coins than some on here would suggest. Imagine a major auction in which a very good dealer with a...
Fine set of results - a better percentage than i have done. And as you say, always a good learning experience. Thanks for sharing.

Jim, Not to pile on, but read Mark's posts closely -- this is a field where there is a huge learning curve. People like Mark and Doug have been...
These threads pop up periodically and they are always interesting. PCGS certainly brings higher money for a MS65 Buffalo of a particular date...
Yes but Berk had already made a serious move when it hired Mike Printz. Mike and Larry Shepherd are friends and the Berk press release made clear...
Such a die clash is typically a little higher on the Indian and is referred to as chin whiskers. Is quite common with Buffalos and you can...
Very sorry to hear it. Saw him at the ANA where he was meeting and greeting. Must have been difficult if he knew this was potentially coming.
Type 1 Buffalo nickel (and nothing else is really close)Walking Liberty Half (and despite others' assertions, I believe Liberty is striding toward...
Ryan,I am the first to join in the chorus of the people who say there are better investments than coins. But... There are a lot of negative...
Rope,I am a collector, not a dealer and certainly understand the desire for shows to be collector-friendly. But the reality is that shows are...
