Re: Beware Raw Ebay Coins (Pics)
someone selling something that a person has every right not to buy at all. Which totally ignores the fact the seller flat-out lied about the condition of the coin and posted a bogus photo to pawn his wares. How is what you have done any different from , say, this What is different is I told the truth and have both the… -
Re: Would You Ever Let A Dealer Build Your Collection?
I am reading about Abe Kosoff and it sounds like most of the major collectors in the 1930s-1950s used dealers to acquire the big player level coins. Of course that was a different time, when a comprehensive Eliasberg-type complete collection was even possible. But I disagree that more collectors use dealers today to build… -
Re: College players now kneeling.
Sorry to inform you and the kneelers, but there is a lot of ignorance on this kneeling issue. Firstly, the initial premise behind Kaepernick and the NFL kneelers is proven by facts to be a totally false narrative. Another false narrative is that the Civil War was all about slavery. It was not all about slavery. The fact is… -

Re: No CAC due to roller marks
That is false. I can dislike a coin without feeling that it is graded inaccurately. -

Re: Have any of you built a secrect compartment or room?
My professional engineer father was always very handy in that regard...he actually built a large empty vault area behind and under a staircase, and then concealed it with a false wall, shelves, and a grocery pantry. The false back of the cabinet was held in place by an electro-magnet that needed to be plugged in to release… -
Re: Where does Beckett get off saying this?
Modern collectors are every bit a part of the hobby. New cards are every bit a part of the hobby. Even T206's were new cards when they were first issued. My point is, they are promoting false highs and false rarities to push thier price guides and grading service. This is what is dividing the hobby right now. Anybody still… -
Re: US Mint Website Repricing silver offerings?
Not usually, but they did actually lower the price of the Morgan and Peace Dollars in 2023. The premiums are WAAAAY higher now than they have traditionally been. As a result, they are not so quick to adjust prices either way, as we can see with this year's run up in the price of silver. Silver is up around 75% this year,… -
Re: 250th Anniversary United States Army American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin
Again, you're splitting hairs. They haven't shipped yet. There are other offers. Bids will likely rise before they fall, once they are actually sold out and the buyers know beyond any doubt that they won't be getting any more directly from the Mint. Long way from 100%? So take a pass. Doesn't mean others won't work for…
