Re: Okay, who can name this famous numismatist?
I wouldn't have guessed it's me, but it is. I hesitated posting a run of the mill picture and the bluemoon pose got a chuckle out of me too. Cameron may have found me in the Baltimore ANA picture from last summer when I posed with Ken, Tootawl and Merz outside the convention center. Now I can run a contest something like… -

Since Uncle TRUTH hasn't blessed us with a Halloween story...
Here's my humble submission (only slightly modified from the world coin forum version): The Night of the Living Dead Coins It was a dark and stormy night. An intrepid Collector traveled miles through the stormy weather of rain-drenched southern Florida to reach his destination, a coin shop advertising gem uncirculated… -

Re: CAC and Green Spots on Gold
While I wouldn’t go as far as saying they don’t ever do it anymore, but the days of PCGS fixing environmental problems under the guarantee are over for the most part. I am not sure what the guarantee even covers anymore considering that grades are subjective. I had a CC trade in an expensive grade with a trueview. I bought… -
Re: AT, NT and a Discussion of Determining Between the Two
<< <i>you are simply wasting time & effort fretting over the whole bogus "at vs nt" so-called debate. instead, focus on what YOU like!!! >> Good advice. I think most people can spot the eBay ridiculous AT coins a mile away, but other than extremes, I think RYK said it best - the grey area is too big. This is my only coin… -
Re: Why doesn't Wisconsin have a pro hockey team ?
Well, THAT was certainly convincing logic. Good job. If you followed hockey at all you'd already know that if Milwaukee could support an NHL franchise they would have had one in the 90's when Bettman was awarding franchises to any market that wanted one. An investment group took at look at it in the mid-90's when Bettman… -
Rarest British Uncirculated Currency Coin of the 19th Century?
OK, which coin or coins are the rarest uncirculated currency issues for Great Britain for the 19th Century (emphasis on Victoria)?

A Cast Counterfeit Spanish Milled Pillar Dollar
The mention of a counterfeit Spanish coin in the World and Ancient section reminded me of this piece. I spotted this counterfeit pillar dollar in my local club auction. I pointed it out to the consigner, and he gave me the piece to use as an education tool. These coins are well over 200 years old and can be found with… -
Re: Sacrificing Quality When You Don't Know How Many Examples Exist...
I'll fill the hole if the price is right and will buy the "right" coin when it comes along. I've been doing that for a while now and always get my money back on the imperfect coins. For me, I've been benefitting from owning multiple examples of rare items. It improves my familiarity with the series. I have a ~70 coin set…
