Re: Some more OT: RIP Tom Petty
Walls Some days are diamonds Some days are rocks Some doors are open Some roads are blocked Sundowns are golden Then fade away But if I never do nothing I'll get you back some day 'Cause you got a heart so big It could crush this town And I can't hold out forever Even walls fall down And all around your island There's a… -
Re: Uncirculated Coins in Rolls
There are 11 different grades within "uncirculated". Where do yours fall within that range? 🤔 Also, values you might be seeing could be for graded (aka slabbed ) coins. In any case, if you're paying more than face value for coins like this, please let me know. ;) -
Re: Fakes and Ebay
Yes, AI should be able to spot something like this. Perhaps it found enough 1845-CCs (counterfeits) while searching so as to not identify it as a non-existent date and MM combination. How does AI correctly identify the list of what genuine coins exist and what doesn't? How does it tell which source is accurate? Obviously,… -
Re: The 1953-S Roosevelt "acorn" variety - FS-901, New Cherrypickers' variety

Re: Auction Financing
Being debt free really shines a light on the biblical quote "the debtor is the lenders slave." I fell into that quicksand trap years ago, and foundout how difficult it is to extricate oneself. At this stage of life-late 60's-I find I want nothing bad enough to fall into the debt trap again. -
Re: CAC News: Published Grading Standards and New Insert Coming
I don't think any individual poster on this forum is qualified to say what is the most important thing to participants here. I personally have never cared about registry sets of any sort. I have no idea how many others here feel like I do about this topic; it doesn't matter to me. I think most people here are interested in… -
Re: Some State Quarter Pops are Exploding.
You can always point out a few coins that are not following the trend but if you look at the overwhelming majority of state quarters, prices have continued to drop. Coins that sold as high as $3400 are now selling for under $200 as in the case of the Mass-P. Take the Georgia quarters that sold for $3000+ are now selling… -
