Why in the world are you being so cryptic and why do you keep avoiding the million dollar question as to WHY you artificially toned the coin in the OP, and why you were attempting to sell it without being upfront? If you have so much time on your hands to reply to me within seconds of my post, you have time to explain this to us and save face. The longer you delay and talk in circles, the less reputation you have to uphold here.
I am tired but I have plenty of time on my hands. I have mentioned already that my sincere desire is to spill my guts and say all that should be said however no can do. I know this is not going to be popular with anyone to remain silent but when the details are revealed it will make sense. I am in this for the long haul.
Ok then until you want to reveal the big secret, stop justifying your apparently spurious actions. Why are you even posting here if your goal is to just deflect attention from your chicanery through circumlocution and avoidance of the main question? I just think you're buying time to fabricate an elaborate prose to cloak your mendacity.
Well nice guess but since I didn't have to be here to offer any answers at all that makes no sense. You already know this though and just like others who want answers now you will say anything to try to compel me into just saying okay and giving it up. Just wait! I am not saying hope you understand this clearly now. It would be a violation of my commitment to what I am doing. Goodnight
It makes perfect sense from the analysis of your replies. All you have done is refute and deflect what the other members have said, and dodged an incredibly relavent question through circumlocution.
I didn’t mention Silver or nickel. It was just a video for those that wanted to see what Kurt was mentioning about Niobium.
Aside from the cheesy guitar track, thanks for that. I now appreciate more than ever what the Austrian Mint is doing. By the way, I bought a bulk lot of electronic gear at an auction. I think I have a power supply in there that will work for this.
I collect the Austrian Niobium coins. They are quite nice in my opinion and fairly unique (Canada has done some which mainly aren’t as creative; Latvia and Luxembourg have some-again with simpler designs and these might actually also be produced in Austria; Palau has also entered-those are produced in Germany).
I think I have three Austrian niobiums. They are in a bin I haven't looked through in YEARS! I know for sure I have the yellow moon one.
They are worth another look! The 2003 (first year) is the key to the set. The 2004, 2008, 2010, 2014 are also better dates. Pretty much all sell for above issue price. I don’t have mine pictured (so I borrowed some pictures from online), but these are two of my favorite:
Yeah, in general, color OF ANY KIND on coins leaves me cold, so I have to be blown away by the subject depicted.
I wasn't familiar with the show Dr Who but after checking out what it is about this situation is similar minus the time travel and space ship and I am certainly no time Lord! Very funny though! There is some serious wrongs with coin grading and coin grading services that need major overhaul and it is needed now! So far based on what I've experienced an explanation of this isn't sufficient to bring about the change necessary to turn grading services around. So instead I won't tell you the problem I will show it to you. Hope this is helpful to make some understand. We aren't there yet but I'm optimistic!
Seems to me if this isn't important then stop edited about Chinese counterfeits! Stop whining about AT coins! Stop crying about fake holders! In China if you can make something then you have the right and to hell with intellectual property rights(I personally agree with that). Whoever doesn't care deserves to lose a good deal of money to fraud!
