Re: Have you ever been ripped off online? Stories here!
I've been ripped off , on the "bay" , but nothing of great worth. I've had people not sent or item lost with no recourse. All were money orders. If someone could post the long gone coin seller--- rafaelcoins --- , you will see one of the worst ripoffs that I've ever see. I bought a very high grade Buffalo Nickel ( that I… -
My New Seated Liberty Trio
Found these three in the last couple of months. Great look plus as a southerner, I love new Orleans coins. The 1860-O has great rainbow toning in hand that does not show up in the pic. I am fascinated by AU coins because they actually did what coins were made to do for a little while. -

Then you have sellers like Great Southern and centsles and others like https://www.vtcoins.com/ who… -
I have decided to start running my own coin shows.
Greetings Everyone, After some research and planning, I am in the process of becoming a coin show promoter. You heard me right - a coin show promoter, though not on the level of Kevin Foley (of Chicago Paper Money Expo and Mid America Coin Show fame). But my first show will not be until mid-April. Now you're wondering what… -
Re: Interesting mix of fake/real eBay coins

The 1854-O Liberty double eagle claims a meager mintage of 3,250 pieces, the second-lowest production total of the series. The… -
Re: Historically important coins?
Agreed. I find the history of our country and coinage fascinating. There’s at least two sides to history. For all the great things that happened, there were many not so great things as well. For example: Confederate coins are associated with slavery, rightly or wrongly. California Territorial Gold is associated with the…
