Re: Bryant gumble/ Joe O discuss a fake wagner on real sports
If the south woulda won we woulda had it made. I'd probably run for president of the southern states. The day Elvis passed away would be our national holiday. If the south woulda won we woulda had it made. I'd make my surpreme court down in Texas and we wouldn't have no killers getting off free. If they were proven guilty… -
Re: Is this overdoing it a bit?
Originally posted by: TigersFan2 In looking at his other auctions, here's an odd one... An 1889-CC (raw) that he sold in a 1-day auction. ,b. I don't understand why anyone would choose to have a 1-day auction unless it's a fake coin and they want the auction completed before anyone notices and reports it. It seems common… -
Re: Bite this thread!
Slammer. RIIIGHT!...WRONG! I am referring to the experts "tell" and not the thumbnail analysis that I may be able to make. FYI, I know an awful lot about modern gold, but I couldn't name the 10 most desired Morgans. My question was straight and to the point. Whether I inherited, bought or destroyed an 1892-CC is not of… -

Re: What's with the John M Mercanti PCGS slabs?
Steve..this was NOT posted to be lectured at..we ALL know the labeling "system" in play is funky, at best. Here's my analogy: You buy a nice new Ford F150 Supercab Lariat XLT...Nice truck..2 years later, you want to trade it in for a newer model. The dealer, when giving you an appraisal, is $4,000 less than expected. When… -
Re: hh
Slammer: Sorry to have missed you (and everyone else) - was there late afternoon yesterday because of a golf tournament and back today around noon to buy a coin I needed to research. Great time! Nice pickups - can't go wrong with nice Morgans and toned material. :+1: The older I get, the more I appreciate just chatting… -
Re: A board mamber says thanks and goodbye.
I find this whole situation unfortunate. I like these boards and have made many new contacts that I otherwise would never have made. I think it is appropriate to have a monitor to prevent SPAMMERS and other posts inappropriate posts (porn, etc.). Aside from that, these boards should be sponsored by PCGS in good faith to be… -
Re: are some collectors crooks?
When I first started collecting I was afraid to buy anything just because of that reason I never really started to buy HQ rare coins untill the advent of TPG's for just that reason. Its buyer beware in a dog eat dog world and collectors are not immune we are targets of scamers from all over the world. It is no suprise to… -
Re: Pres. dollars and 1st day of issue/ new holders
I am not a fan of most moderns, to each his own however. Here is the deal as I come to see it...Rationality nor logic comes into play with the new mint issues. There is a media machine that caters to a certain market niche of people. The media machine is HSN, CoinVault and I imagine QVC. The people are those who are… -
The best pull in my store's (short) history!
One of my good friends who doesn't even collect much basketball decided to buy a pack of Topps Pristine just for the heck of it. He got this Shaq 1/1 Cyan Press Plate card, whcih he didn't even know what it was when he pulled it. He had me post it on ebay for him, and I guess by telling you that I'm a spammer on these…
