Re: Return policies and sales/auctions...
As someone who has been more of a buyer than a seller both through eBay and other internet venues such as this message board I can tell you that it is an expensive way to "look". As a buyer its a lot of fun to put $15-$20 into a coin and not even own it. If the seller conveniently forgets to describe milk spots, rubs or… -
Re: 1967 Kennedy that weighs 12.54
Let us assume for the sake of argument that the making of the raw 40% silver clad ingot consisted of taking a long, strip of one inch thick 80% silver, laying an equally long strip of the approximately 21% silver core atop that, and then laying another equally long strip of 80% silver atop that. Then bond them together… -

Re: My best friend of 30 years wants to buy metals now. Beginner suggestions?
You can never go wrong with SAE's! Make sure you teach about over priced issues with dragons and pirates and avoid the artificial "low mintage" crap from all Mints. Also show this person afew graded 70 proofs and BU issues that now have milk spots in the holder (what a waste of time and money). Bars are great but a new… -
Re: Classic Head Large Cent 1814 in my 7070
The classic head large cent and with motto seated dollar are usually the last coins I find for customer's type sets. After looking at them for years, I was more than happy to add this my own type (and large cent date) set for $400 a couple years ago, as part of a bulk large cent purchase from a set from an old… -
Re: ambro51 made me do it
Good For You! Old copper is addictive. Learning about it takes more than a lifetime and start gathering your reference books. Breens Encyclopedia is fantastic with colonials. The new Whitman book is also a must have. Your second piece is a contemporary counterfeit. These pieces circulated along with Regal Coinage. They are… -

Re: What if I found a bunch of black NGC slabs?
I now have 17 of them, never paid more than 20% over bid for any. I have been milking this source for years. The shop just doesn't care, bought a bunch of doily's and WTC coins, the later at spot plus a few bucks. I have over 20 2001 WTC ASE's I paid less than $15 for, when silver was $6-8/oz I got charged $10, by their… -
Re: Sadness at the Safe Deposit Box...
OK, that's a much better explanation than what you posted. apparently they were washing the planchets in a different solution whereas your wording led me to believe they were washing already minted coins. it sounds much like what was going on in the 1950-1970 years that Rick Tomaska talks about in his book. they used ivory… -
