Re: 1988d Doubled Ear
Yes, very simply. There is no doubled earlobe. Just like your alt @Married2Coins , you lack the experience and ability to correctly assess die varieties, and consequently arrive at false conclusions. And like @Married2Coins , you harm inexperienced members of the Forum by spreading misinformation. Here is another such… -
Mint response to John Vaughan's petition to Congress - 1798
This little letter is the response to Congress by Mint Director Boudinot. In it he attempts to justify "short changing" Vaughan by making several largely insubstantial claims. The Committee of Claims found in Vaughan's favor - eventually. (Hopefully, there are no embarrassing typos this time.) "Mint of the United States… -
Re: The 2026 Silver Proof Set is a potential winner
Unlikely, unless the published prices are mistakes. Which they do not appear to be. Maybe after a year, if a lot of product sits unsold. But certainly not in reaction to reflexive subscription cancellations. They had to have known such a violent price increase would be a shock to our system. It's an open question regarding… -
Re: POLL: Is this "stealing" or just "unethical"?

Re: POLL: What percent of coins at pawn shops are stolen?
As a former (retired) pawnbroker I can tell you practically NONE. Stolen JEWELRY may go to a pawn shop, but even on that the records of pawnbrokers are nearly ALL computerized. Makes it a BAD BAD place to "off" hot stuff. In California, there's even a neat lil law called PC 484.1 "484.1. (a) Any person who knowingly gives… -

Re: Jim Rickards: Gold is leaving the U.S. in record amounts
Paper currencies have been eroding for decades or centuries. It's the price for being a dominant and/or reserve financial currency: you have to run a trade deficit and capital account surplus, and that means you print more money than domestic demand. Your currency falls over time. The Dollar has been "eroding" since 1913.… -
Re: The Gauntlet is Thrown
The rumors that I bribed Coinguy to pick 40 trade dollars in a row are false, I tell ya, FALSE! Not at FUN? Harumph - obviously not from North of the Mason Dixon line! -
Re: MLB to add Negro League statistics to the official record.
Instead of "woke", what word would you like others to use to describe arguments relying on false assumptions which are intended to promote a gender or race driven political agenda? And you used the word "competitive" incorrectly. In order for someone to use the word "woke" in lieu of "competitive" thoughts, it must be in… -
Re: Hypothetical 2025 coin investment- What is the best bang for your buck in the current market.
I don't mean to hijack this thread, but for those who collected coins during the Great Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2008-2009, what happened to coin values? The GFC caused prices to fall across multiple asset classes, such as equities, real estate and all sorts of derivative products. A large percentage of the population was…
