Re: Toned vs. White? Anaconda's opinion.
<< <i> << <i>I was an underbidder on that one and agree. There isn't another Kennedy like it. >> Come on, Pat, you were underbidder at $55, 16% of what Adrian paid for it. Even I might have paid that for it. Clearly you didn't think it was all that. Russ, NCNE >> Russ, Thanks for the research, but actually I placed a… -
Re: Why isn't silver at $30.00/ounce already?

The platform of $30/oz hasn't been realized yet due to the constraints established by Russ.....he hasn't sold yet so the market will remain at a low flux till the time of 37min past sale from Russ.....prices will then increase exponentially till a base market of $38.24/oz is established. Another excellent point! I tried to… -
Re: '64 Proof set - Pointed Tail 9? explain please
<< <i> << <i>PS: I think NGC has graded 4 in PF69UCAM, two of which originally came from me. Russ, NCNE >> and the other two came from me. All AH proof sets have pointed 9 dimes, But a pointed 9 dime also comes in non-AH sets. >> You and Russ need to get your stories straight.... Russ says: << <i>every pointed 9 set I've… -
Re: Wasn't this an "$80,000.00" coin just last week?
HEY! Get this. $90K Boy is reading this thread. Just got the following, unsolicited, from him: << <i>From: StackGenerator@cs.com Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2002 20:16:57 EDT Subject: 2000 NGC PF68 SILVER QUARTER NO RESERVE Item # 1381883553 To: russ@compucheap.com X-Mailer: CompuServe 2000 32-bit sub 107 Russ, The value in these… -
Re: Is this Kennedy half dollar artificially toned?

Well, it looks like a lot more than the sand is "cooking" down there in Phoenix, AZ. Thanks rd5425 for the help. Though I couldn't make your 2nd link work. Russ' seller lists his auction location as THE DESERT. Rd5425's seller lists his auction location as PHX, AZ. Russ' seller lists his address in the payment instructions… -
Re: Anyone a member of the John Reich collectors society?
I have been a happy member of John Reich Collectors Society for about 15 years. As has been mentioned all work is done by volunteers who work strictly without pay and the Journal can only be published after enough members submit articles for publication. I have my copies of every Journal published and always look forward… -
Re: MONSTER SHOW COMING UP THIS SATURDAY IN KENT!!
Could not justify the time or expense of a trip to Kent. I would arrive only to find that all of the cameos have already been gathered by Russ; or that all of the dealers have set aside their thousands of Proof and SMS sets in an off limits backroom where only admittance is given only to Russ and Marty. With the above… -
Re: "We paid $80 for the coin, which quickly sold to a variety collector for $2,000!"

<< <i><< I read this on a dealer's website. How does this statement, if at all, influence your interest to buy/sell coins from/to this dealer? What if a collector (ie. Russ or MadMarty) made a similar claim? Is there a double standard? >> There is no difference. The dealer is not too bright for admitting such a thing. No… -
Re: Is this a A.H. Kennedy?
Let's see how well I have learned my lessons. AH stands for Accented Hair. The earliest 1964 JFK proofs featured accented hair in the region above JFK's ear on the portrait. But, Jackie objected and the Mint toned down the hair. About 40,000 to 80,000 of the '64 proofs are AH. The diagnostics are a wishbone or W shape… -
Re: Stiffed by Board Member??
Russ- The title of the thread is "Stiffed by Board Member??" The title is NOT "Cheated by Board Member??" You say, "You did not get 'stiffed', as your title says, since no transaction was completed." You then go on to say, "And, no goods changed hands, so nobody was cheated-which is the definition of 'stiffed'." Sorry…
