Re: Do You Think There is a 1964-D Peace Dollar In Hiding?
the stories given by members about the existence of 1964 Peace Dollars all have one thing in common, they would qualify as Urban Myths. the main concept or structure of an Urban Myth is to contain a reference like "I know someone who knows someone" or "someone told me about someone they knew" included as the basis for… -
Re: Will 1980's PSA Set Collecting Take Off
Schmidt> While I totally understand your point, I think your numbers are off on the 82F stuff. Right now, 82F wax boxes typically go for $80 or so. While you are right that this is less expensive than many current (2002) unopened boxes, my question is will this still hold true 20 years from now? Or once the rave over that… -
Re: One more reason to hate the NFL
Read an article the other day about the 72 Dolphins. They made history that year, but price paid was stiff. Bill Stanfill (deceased) suffered from dementia and Parkinson's. A posthumous examination of Earl Morrall's brain revealed CTE. Tim Foley and Hubert Ginn suffer from cognitive impairment. Jim Langer's "knees and legs… -

<< <i>What in the world are "wrong stocks"? Glad you are an Ike fan Neca, as there are precious few about. Now, about the 800k figure - if you have the money to spend, do let me know!

Re: Sorry I brought the whole JohnZ thng back up...
<< <i>Razorface and others: the issue isn't about patience. The issue is that John Z made statements that were patently false. He said more than a month ago that the coins were in the mail, when time has proven that to be totally untrue. However, it was learned that John had some family issues that prevented him from… -
Re: Hey TDN ! Got your radar on ?
Having seen both coins in hand, and examining both very closely, both coins have luster across the surfaces, but the character of the luster is very different between the two. The Norweb specimen is an earlier die state than the former Cardinal specimen, with the Cardinal specimen falling after the dies clashed and were… -
Re: Any elongated cent collectors? 1904 St. Louis Worlds Fair
<< <i> << <i>Hi, Neat!! As far as being made at the Fair, almost certainly. 1939 NYWF is my area - there were 50 stands or booths there that did "penny crushing" run by "Frank Galland's Penny Crushers" and they all have a variety of designs both general and exhibit-specific. I am STILL looking for a "stretched" Mercury… -
Re: PCGS -Fedex delivery problems-delay after delay- Anyone else have problems with Fedex delivery?
The key factor is the last mile or so -- my FedEx is awesome, my UPS sucks, and USPS falls in the middle (my regular courier is great but vacation or weekend replacements are very bad). And the only one of them that sends coins all over the place for me is USPS. They have a Barber quarter that made it to my post office… -
Re: premiums for silver again going down.
Price goes up, demand goes up. premiums up. Price goes down, demand goes down. premiums down. Depends on the true availability which obviously no one seems to know because there are clearly 2 camps on what true supplies are. Is there a silver shortage or isn't there? Can all the comex long contracts be paid off with real… -
Re: I just can't believe SBAs go for this much money
<< <i>I've never understood why there can be so many MS-65, 66 and 67 Morgans, and there are so few Ikes or Susies in those grades, despite the fact that the Morgans had another 100 years to be mishandled (time in vaults notwithstanding). Is the minting process or the handling that much rougher on coins today? Are TPGs…
