Which Set Would You Finish?
resized.jpg)
Hello Everyone... I've made mention that I'll be in a new (tenure-track) faculty position this Fall. I haven't even started yet but I'm already being pulled in a few directions... which is a good thing! I'll be putting coins on the back burner for the foreseeable future but I may be in the position to make one more… -
Re: NFL has become a game of holding your breath......
Dimeman, first of all Dez bobbles the ball after high pointing it (BTW I love this made up term NFL analysts have invented for jumping and trying to catch the football). The steps he takes once he gains control of the pass are all while going to the ground and therefore do not count towards making a football move or… -
Re: Last Long Beach Show? - Update 2026 Long Beach Show Returns ? (in comments)
And no sales tax on coins. I was looking into a group to create an annual or semiannual (Spring/Fall) show there, but I probably am going to disengage for a while soon enough. Still a possibility. -
Re: Please explain to me why......
<< <i>How many of you wanting to see the PMs go down so you could buy more, bought the dip in the Fall of 2008???? >> Not sure I fall into the camp of wanting PMs to go down, but I did "buy the dip" in fall 2008. I picked up about five ounces of gold from a downtown Chicago coin dealer during that time. -
Re: Caitlin Clark’s Autographed WNBA Rookie Card Sells for Eye-Popping Amount
I think with the way Silver bundles the media rights for the NBA and WNBA was helpful as it will provide $180-$220MM in additional revenue. So they could be profitable as soon as 2025. That being said I think that you have to consider the $500MM in debt and that they have a false economy with regard to salaries today in… -
Re: Duluth, MN Coin Show this Saturday, Sept. 27th
the fall colors should be fantastic That's right! The fall colors are usually close to peak the last weekend in September. I would say they are at 50% right now. This is an angle I have tried to promote, get some folks coming up from the Twin Cities for the weekend, hitting the coin show on Saturday, and on Sunday a nice… -
A moose of a new book by QDB (slightly off topic because it deals with <gasp> paper money)
As I was continually hitting the refresh button on the ANR site, the following popped up. Hopefully I won't get bounced for posting this on the coin forum when it clearly deals with paper money. However, I think any new QDB book is an "event", and everyone should know about this new book. I have to put this one on my list,… -
Re: a very good argument for buying gold
Totally false. AIG wasn't bailed out, the shares are down 94% from 2007. Is that your idea of a bailout ? :D 100% wrong on the bonuses, too. Yes...and the TBTF institutions are the GSEs, the Unions, Pension funds, and HUD. Again, you've gotten wrong information from people with a political bias. The proof lies in who got… -
Re: Tell us about the new coin threads that you created and decided not to post...
Took a bit to dig up. ——- The Niagara Falls Hydroelectric Station “Starting over one hundred years ago, power companies have used water in the Niagara River to generate electricity. Strangely enough, they don't touch the water which goes over the falls. Instead, about a mile above the falls, much of the river is diverted… -
Re: You hate it when....
<< <i>You hate it when....you look at a coin's obverse and fall madly in love with it, knowing that you MUST own it, no matter what the cost......Then you turn it over and something about the reverse immediately makes you fall out of love >> ...or you fall madly in love with the coin in the dealers' cabinet until you have…
