I'm assuming most of us make a decent living seeing as we collect the thing many people don't have enough of to buy food or clothing or homes or...
Frankly, I don't see how it matters. There will always be coins and those who collect them for various reasons, so thats all that matters. I also...
If you read what Ebay posted, the seller isn't responsible for figuring the tax amounts as it will be done automatically and remitted...
I do, as it's the only book I own on the early dates. I have multiple references on middle and late dates, but find PW is all I need for early.
He could have very well mailed it when he stated and it wasn't processed for a week. The PO isn't going to operate right through a hurricane, and...

Sadly, I see some things never change around here.
I'm just looking for a clear understanding of how it can possibly factor in. There is no win or lose.
Yet it says nothing about how it factors in. Eye appeal is subject to taste and opinion, not detail. Perhaps this is one of the multitude of...
I guess my point is, how can a grader assign a coin points based on eye appeal? No two graders anywhere can agree on that. There is no technical...
I've been a collector for over 35 years and own many grading guides. It's not about what I believe, it's fact.
Ugly for sure, but eye appeal doesn't factor into grading. At least if it's graded correctly it doesn't.
In a word, liquidity. Easily recognizable bullion from major mints sell easier, faster, and for more than others.
