Re: My apologies to the entire forum - and a picture of my OTHER 1922
<< <i> << <i> << <i>I fully agree that the OP owes nobody any apologies! However, im not certain that anyone from that thread owes any apologies either. The coin was listed in a free and public forum. The BST allows members to post to any and all threads there, it does not just allow the OP to post. Therefore, I still view… -

Re: ARE FOREIGNERS GOING TO EVENTUALLY PRICE AMERICANS OUT OF THEIR OWN UNITED STATES COIN HOBBY? YOUR T
It has happened in the Australian stamp market when the A$ fell to new lows against the US$ and other currencies. Many foreigners were able to buy up scare and rare Australian stamps at what were perceived as 'cheap' prices. Australians were not able to match the high prices and many stamps went overseas.

I personally love Andre Dawson, he's one of the guys I collect. Unfortunately I do think he falls short on hall of fame worthiness and only because of that Olympic Stadium turf on top of his high school knee injuries.

Re: Will BRICS replace the dollar as the world's reserve currency?
Where do you get your information on banking and finance ? Because it's clear to me that you are going to right-wing, libertarian, Murray Rothschild-like polemical websites that spew nonsense that isn't backed up by facts.

Re: My metal detecting finds from 2020 to present
Hit silver beach again with the Manticore. It seemed to false a bit more today than the previous hunt but still ended with a decent haul - a nice 10k white gold ring, vintage sterling ring, silver Washington, 3 silver dimes, buffalo nickel, some wheat cents and junk jewelry.
