Re: Using ChatGPT to analyze auction catalogs Part 1
A step backward…yesterday’s attempt to run the prompts against a broad range of sales was a total failure. But in the failure there is learning… The prompts should have been simple and replicable after the success in analyzing a single catalog. I ran the prompt to search all of the Schumann auctions for proof, dollar-sized… -
Re: another c/s on a 1807 50c little known maker O-105 R-5
Related counterstamped coins: "135. Countermarked Rare Brockage Large Cent! 1849. The date of this coin can be seen in mirror image on the reverse as 184- with the last digit overstruck by the countermark so it might be "1849" or "1848" The large cent is slightly broad struck because of the multiple strikes. The reverse… -
Re: When to cash silver in for numismatic coins?
Here’s a clear, serious bearish (bear-case) argument for silver prices, the way a commodities analyst or skeptical investor would lay it out. 🐻 The Bear Argument for Silver 1.

Re: Classic Commems
Everyone’s input has been appreciated. I’ve always heard that this series was popular and expensive in the past, but had a huge falling out. You guys are in deep and I get that.

Re: Stack’s Bowers to sell the Omega One Cent coins and 24k gold Lincoln cents
The email stated CAC not CACG. Those are two different companies. It would be false advertising if these are going to CACG to be re-holdered after the auction. As worded, it means they are going to JA's desk at CAC. -

Spring PNNA Show report
Been quite a while since i have had a stress free, nearly slow down free drive from my home north of Seattle to Portland but the trip down Friday was easy. I left at 1130 thinking it would take me 6 hours and got to the venue in 4-1/2. Had to kill a couple hours before they would actually let us in to set up ( I… -
Re: TD Securities Bank gets their silver shorts handed to them (again) ?
The point is that this article was nonsense -- that a sell-side analysts position was taken by the bank in a large economic manner. Totally false and shows a basic lack of financial knowledge by the website authors. Divisions may have different assets that they own/house, but again, without leverage they are manageable.… -
