  • I bought a sample slab off ebay for $40 and at Long beach found one just like it for $15. I bought that one also of course.

    Bought a 1932-S Qurter raw for $800 that had PVC. When I removed the PVC there were some bad hailines on the coin I didn't see. Sold it for $300. If I can brag on the "biggest rip" thread then I should be able to share the bad stuff too.

    Yeah, but gold went up & if it keeps going, the melt value may be more than you paid
