    Agree. I like to call to discuss a coin or negotiate the terms of a purchase. I can't say that I've ever seen a coin dealer that didn't have his phone number listed.

    Email them to see if they have a phone number. A lot of dealers don't post theirs in public because they don't want to be bombarded with phone calls about how someone has a rare 1923 silver dollar with a spelling error, or a miscolored 1943 penny...

    Lol.......yep. If you number is posted, you will get those calls. I get the "rare misspelled Peace Dollar" call several times each week.

    Are you sure it numismatic? I don't believe it! Still waiting for the posts to go numismatic before I believe you would actually talk numismatically, even on the phone image

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
