Re: trillion dollar coins
Nothing is free - the day the balance is due will eventually come. I continue to marvel at how long the scammers can drag out the ponzi scheme and at how the American people are willing to shut their eyes so tightly, in the hope that it's really not a freight train and that they really aren't standing right on the tracks… -
Re: Authentic or Reproducation? - 1793 Chain Cent (Answer Revealed in 1st Post)

Re: I suppose I should be flattered....
"Given how lax they are about protecting their price guide as "intellectual property" when scammers quote PCGS prices for third world MS-70 coins, I have trouble believing they'd get worked up about this, either.
