Re: March - Women’s History Month - Martha Washington, et al.
Sacagawea The bilingual Shoshone woman Sacagawea (c. 1788 – 1812) accompanied the Lewis and Clark Corps of Discovery expedition in 1805-06 from the northern plains through the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean and back. Her skills as a translator were invaluable, as was her intimate knowledge of some difficult terrain.… -
Re: Terrible call....nothing to challange....catch all the way.....
I agree that was a horrible call. It was a catch, even per the rule the NFL has in place. The rule of a "football move" makes it a catch, and they botched it....even the head guys. 1.He caught the ball around the 7 yard line(not the ten). 2. At the time he caught the ball his body was sideways. Look at that closely because… -
Five true/false statements on human nature and submitting
Five statements designed to elicit theories and discussion. Answer true/false, and chat away on any if so inclined. My personal feelings: All five statements are "True" to some degree. 1. The grading room has good/bad days. Even with several graders looking at the same coin, there will be days when they are a bit more… -

Re: Ticket Prices CRASH in WNBA After Caitlin Clark Injury By as Much as 300 Percent per Ticket

The difference between the two is that when they both bumped each other (which is all it was both ways) Jokic didnt flop and Morris did acting like he had just gotten shot trying to get Jokic thrown out. This happens all the time in soccer and its been an… -
Re: Gold down
Until gold falls below the $845-$865 range, the overall trend since 2002 is distinctly up. If we do get a fall below $900 coming up in August, you may only have 1-2 weeks to react to it. If gold stays above $905 in August, that would be extremely bullish. In fact, even above $880 would be very bullish. Gold was down this… -
ASE, AGE, & APE missing from US Mint Fall 2009 Catalog?
The US Mint will be issuing its Fall Catalog on 8/27. The catalog description on the US Mint Website does not mention any ASE, AGE, or APE coins. I guess we still don't know if or when the US Mint will be issuing these in 2009, although it is late in the year. US Mint 2009 Fall Catalog Link… -
Re: Modern Cards - What value do they really hold?
Supply and Demand has forever destroyed the modern card market. I stopped collecting modern cards in 1993; I didn't think it would get worst! Look at the chain of events: First there was the regular "insert card". Topps Finest Refractors were some of the hottest cards in the hobby at one time. Then it was the "super… -

Re: Eye Candy Pics (Thanks, Ian!)
Angle of lighting makes a huge difference with toned coins. The Stack’s picture was either axially-lit or angled to be directly under a light source and then skewed. Basically the OP’s picture is how it looks normally in hand and the Stack’s picture is how it looks if you were to tilt it just perfectly to get the flash of…
