Crack outs and resubmissions for profit has been the road to riches for many. I started doing it in 2004 and I also found this book helpful: How to Make Money in Coins Right Now, 2nd Edition (Paperback) by Scott A. Travers (Author)
Excellent CC article. Thanks! As a collector of GSA Morgans, it nice to see another piece on the subject, especially one this informative.
Weird - let's try this. http://www. numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&ArticleId=2747 http://www. numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&ArticleId=2742 I put an extra space after the www. - so use copy/paste and just remember to delete that extra space.
grr..I get the numis. logo but then just blank underneath...no articles. Just tried firefox and didnt work on that one either. Wonder if its an XP thing..lol
Update to Vista I don't think it is XP---I run XP on 2 computers (and Vista on another one) and don't have a problem. I'm wondering if it could be a problem with the sites bandwidth...... Speedy
Whatever it is it's weird. I use XP Pro and IE7 and have no problems - ever. And it seems that the vast majority around here don't either. So chalk it up to the wonders of technology - it's wonderful when it works and it makes you wonder when it doesn't.
Doug, thanks for posting the link. I appreciate his oppinion, but what he fails to mention is that to be successful at the crackout game one must be committed to spending a LOT of money on trying to upgrade stuff. He completely ignores the expense of the failures a crackout artist will certainly accrue. When I speak to these guys they routinely tell me about how much inventory they are carrying that they "can't get into the right holders". These are some of the best graders out there, but on borderline coins the services tend to miss low on most occassions. this is not meant to say to people "don't play the crackout game", just make sure that you know what you are getting into before you start throwing your money into something that you may not fully understand.
Thanks for sharing that. It shows how every bit of information from experts, no matter how well written, should be verified with actual experience.
