Re: Here is an interesting tidbit about Gold and Oil. Just thought I would share.
<< <i> << <i>The US has recently developed a catalyst using certain metals that when pure water is passed through, oxygen collects on one side hydrogen on the other. In that way hydrogen can be generated on demand and not stored which is the danger today. Sure it will take oil to get it going but once when have power… -
Re: Third stimulus check pending in my checking account. Will you use towards coin purchases?
Mine just showed up and it just so happens today is the day my commuter (sport touring motorcycle) goes in for the annual tune up as we get to Springtime...the weekend blizzard's snow is already basically gone here in Denver.

Re: My weekend NEWP....... Update
If anyone is curious what an antique Mill's slot key looks like. The lock on the 50 cent machine takes this type of key. Notice it is double cut and different on both sides. Half of the tumblers need to be pushed up & half need to be pushed down. I have managed to get about half of them in the right place and holding… -
Re: November to remember acquisitions......whatya got ?
While I hemmed and hawed over it for a while, I finally settled on a Casey Stengel rookie that felt more representative than the 1940 PlayBall card where he was manager for the Boston Bees.

Re: FINAL $2104!!! Andre the Giant Wrestling All Stars PSA 9 finally hits ebay POP 1!!!
I still have this one. I had two and cracked one out that looked amazing. The reason the Andre card is so difficult is for three reasons. Obviously with it being the first card in the cellophane wrapped block it has tremendous pressure on the corners. The second reason is all three of the Yellow cards including the Hulk… -

I took 3+ hours off yesterday and snooped in 4 shops...............
..................here is summary of my coin shop excursion. I had a busy January. Yesterday morning I had court hearings and other things to do in the morning and early afternoon.
