Re: Civil War Token Pedigrees
Bob Williams was a long time token & coin dealer from Ferndale, Michigan who was in his 90's (IIRC) when he died within the past year. He worked in the auto industry for many years and also was a major dealer in small auto related collectibles. Bob was one of the first people I met when I ventured to my first IKO token… -
Re: Jeff Kent HOF chances?
First, to dispense with the obvious and painful argument, Kent was a whole lot better than Harold Baines, so if that's the new yardstick then he has to get in someday. Beyond that, he'd be a lower tier HOFer, but not in the obvious mistake class, and folks in that class get in mostly on good will with voters and/or they… -

Re: Type set: Best grade or consistency?
<< <i>You might also consider breaking your objective down into smaller goals so that you have a feeling of accomplishment along the way (a single denomination by century for example or start with a 20th century U.S. type set minus moderns). >> This is a good approach. When I was building my base type set with raw coins… -
Re: Regardless of the remainder of the Broncos season, I am content since they beat the Raiders.........
Elway caused lots of misery for lots of teams during the time he played (most notably the Cleveland Browns in 2 AFC Championship games). This also includes the Chiefs. Bad feelings toward the Broncos probably did arise for the Chiefs, Chargers and their respective fans during the Elway years. However, my perspective on the… -

Re: Yankees tied for last place
Axtell how many hits does 45 million get you against the worst team in the AL East??? I think more than one! Check out the Yankee losses, they scored 1 or 2 runs in many of those games. No one was yelling about Yankee pitching when they were winning last year 8-7 or 12-11. If the Yanks get one or two more runs in half of… -
Re: Continental Dollar Struck in Europe - NN Article...
The Ford catalog, borrowing the Carlson 1987 description of the silver specimen, described it as 373.3 gns and an overstruck Spanish milled dollar 1740's to 1750's with the contiguous wreath of leaves on the edge. Carlson suspects the four Continental "Dollars" known in silver (370-385 gns) were shaved down to prevent… -
Re: Why coin COLLECTORS....drink
I collect coins but I don't drink. Not saying there's anything wrong with drinking if that your drug of choice. But! If I were to drink I would have had me a double shot of some old bush mills Irish whisky after this last purchase. I purchased a RAW 1925-S Buff for 1K off the Bay. I receive the coin with a notice that if I…
