What are you talking about?

I wouldn't bet against it being his or he is affiliated with it. I could be wrong though. But let's see: He comes on here with only a handful of posts. Posts a title all in caps asking us to look at the pictures and then links to a site with close to a hundred coin photos all conveniently for sale. If it was an auction with only one coin I'd be less suspicious is all. Again I may be wrong
Asking about one coin is alright in particular but 100 coinsfor sale is spam like.

Have a great Evening,
Matt.
Wrong forum to spam in !
Thanks
<< <i>HEY Matt....why do you have your profile hidden? >>
I didnt know i had it hidden.Im not to worried about it right now.....Nothing in it......atleast i think.
You mean.....Spam is not nutritious? say it ain't so!
<< <i>Pix make no difference, if you are buying raw coins you are exercising poor judgment. Your expectations are about as realistic as expecting a nutritious meal from meat sold in a can. >>
Listen,i bought the coins from the pic,i get what i get.Most people buy them raw.60% of people get there coins online.

YES,exactly what i thought.He acts like everything is high.Its only low if you cant see the face.....LOL......
The do have a generous return policy, so if the coins stink, you can return and get a refund.
<< <i>The seller is on Ebay as well. Claims that "We are liquidators of collectibles, not dealers, experts or graders of them!", but sells a hell of a lot of coins, and appears to know how to price them.

YA,i know,thankgod LOL,15-days should be enough to wipe my A$$ with it and clean it up a little.
<< <i>Btw you guys I did not for a minute think this was spam. What are you guys trying to do run off every new member ? Gives these guys a
break if they are spamers it will become very evident. This guy is brand new even if it was spam (which it is not) how would he know that it
is frowned upon on this forum. Lets give the new people a little more room than the veterans. Soon the only people left will be the S & M
type. >>
Thankyou manofcoins AKA uncle sam....your the mostt accepting of everone else. I appreciate it.BTW it is HONESTLY not spam.Im just trying to get some opinions besides mine,you know.
FYI, here's some more info on that coin from it's sale at the Bowers and Marina Auction, Lot #11739 The John F. Rindge and Alan J. Harlan Collections Session Three, Closed 12/05/2003 09:00 AM PST:
Lot # 2288
1895 Morgan Silver Dollar Proof-66 Deep Cameo (PCGS).
Lot Information
Final Bid: $51,750.00 (includes 15.00% buyer's premium)
Description: A simply stunning coin from the moment you first lay eyes on it, this one will attract considerable attention for its deep gold peripheral toning and headlight centers. We note a hint of blue intermixed in the dentils on the obverse and reverse. The surfaces show none of the usual hairlines or cleaning marks, and this coin somehow survived unscathed by residing quietly in a collector's holdings for many years. The strike is needle-sharp and flawless. With a mintage of just 880 pieces in Proof, there simply aren't many to go around for all the Morgan dollar collectors who would like to own an example.
PCGS has graded only 2 this high in deep cameo, with 7 higher. A worthy acquisition for the specialist who demands outstanding quality.
Philadelphia Mint records reflect 12,000 were coined for general circulation, but none have been found. Therefore, it is assumed that the entire mintage of 12,000 business strikes were melted under the Pittman Act of 1918, which melted down millions of Morgan dollars then held in Treasury vaults. As this date was known in proof condition, it was usually included in most albums and collections, keeping demand very high for the few proofs available. Here is one of the nicest we have seen in some time, a coin that was put away decades ago. Expect fireworks when this gem crosses the auction block.
Three gem Proof 1895 dollars in this sale resided in the same collection for many years until recently consigned to this sale.

Maybe he was waiting for the flips?
Hell, I don't need to exercise.....I get enough just pushing my luck.
What the HeII is this place coming to????
Shame on you guys. Heaven forbid a new collector comes here innocently asking for opinions and advice. You'll run 'em outta town on a rail before just politely answering. If it's a scam or spam it will become obvious as time goes on.
<< <i>I can not believe some of you people !!! A person comes on here with a simple question and he's immediately attacked ??

YEAH....but we were right! He throws a $50,000 proof in his sigline saying bought 5 years ago..."NO IT'S Not for sale"????? COME ON!
He's a fraud. I FEEL NO SHAME!!!

It's not hard to be honest either.....wait then again mybe it is?
The thing is, though, in the vast majority of the cases -- as the thread evolves and others do some detective work -- it appears in hindsight that the "shooting" was justified. Not to apologize for the shoot-first mentality as it can be sometimes unfortunately misdirected at well-meaning newbies, but it *is* a reminder of *why* so many folks here seem to have developed that tendency to "assume the worst."
These types of threads almost always turn out to be "spam or scam," or so it seems.

ElectricEye, nice detective work.
What i don't understand is why some of you are sooo quick to judge newcomers to this board ??
Immediately he was judged and questioned about his reason for posting here.
Did you not read his question? or did you immediately question his sig line pic ?
I am confused by the reactions to a very simple question about a web sites picture quality.
What is so funny about my post?
<< <i>Here,does this make you happy? >>
, the kid has no shame.
BTW, Matthew, the coins in my sig line are really mine, and they are really not for sale.
