Re: Something new on Ebay
When you bid on an item, click the circled tab.
It will take you to this page.
Click that circled tab.
It will give you a choice of combined shipping IF the seller allows combined shipping.
IF not you can ask the seller.
I 100% agree its stupid and a PITA for the buyer.
My problem is I don't pay for things on my phone but wait till I get back to a computer.
The 1 hour clock sucks and I always give eBay the thumbs down for their efforts to streamline the payment process.

@braddick and I'll include @OAKSTAR since he felt a need to repost it, as if once wasn't enough:What is the purpose of posting a clearly disgusting coin in an otherwise very nice thread full of legitimately beautiful numismatic items?
And who exactly are you?... The thread police? If the OP doesn't have any problems with his post or mine, why should you? The OP said: "A good old fashioned post any coin you like thread" "Let's create a thread of just coins and talk relating to them" That's exactly what we were doing......discussing coins.
@braddick - You should put your coin back up!

Re: Counterfeit 50g and 100g gold bullion bars
I'm not saying RCM bars are not counterfeited; I am saying that if you are familiar with the bars and their security features and also use the SIGMA device you should be able to validate its authenticity.
Maple Leaf gold coins have more security features than the bars but it is still fairly easy to visually idenify a RCM Gold counterfeit bar in the old style holder. As far as I know, the new style bars and holders have not yet been counterfeited so you should be save in purchasing one of those. Much like counterfeit coins, counterfeit gold bars have markers that you can identify them visually without needing a machine to tell you. As always, purchase from a reptuable gold dealer no matter what bar you buy.

There's an OPC 9 for sale for $100 on ebay, that's a decent deal. But $160 for a topps 9 is way too high. I would guess no one paid for it.Its paid. I emailed the seller to see if its still available and he said it was paid for.
Did you expect Probstein to say " actually yes it's still here in my pile of not paid for"?
Re: How does a "First Day of Issue" PCGS coin receive the AU55 grade?
How did PCGS attribute that awful looking coin with 'First Day of Issue?" They didn't open their doors until 1986.

You are a great role model buddy. That has got to be one of the most outstanding photos of US coinage that I've ever seen and blows away the majority of MAJOR auction house's catalogs! The grandeur of the designs, and mix of denominations, and the colors! It's a photo that gets me truly excited about coins....even after 50 years! Well done Sir!
Re: Bitcoin Target Price
It's just plain sick that the IMF wants to incentivize El Salvador to back away from bitcoin by "loaning" them a cool billion imaginary US dollars.

Re: 2024 college football thread
I thought it was strange when I found out Will Howard was Ohio States starting QB earlier in the season. My initial thought…. good enough to be K-States QB but Ohio State? 🤔 Why did they even want him? And I’m smack in the middle of wildcat country and I knew he was going to disappoint the Buckeye faithful. 10 points against Michigan. 😂😂😂

Re: The New Commemorative UNC Dollar King has been made
There was a time when I might have followed this sort of thing and jumped in near the end.
But the mint has desensitized me to all the commems.
