What's the largest percentage loss you ever took on a coin?
Other than a "total loss".. damage, lost. c'mon, we see constant 'you suck'-baiting threads and people lyin' about the circumstances around aquisitions so as to seem to be the uber-astute numismatist I just sold a $70 coin I bought for like $14... THAT sucked. 80% loss? bad timing of an auction, bad images or a strange… -
Re: Belated FUN report with NEWPs and Car Wreck (Long)
<< <i>Glad your safe after that Volvo mess. On the other hand what a great pick up in the 96-S half. Excellent job as that is a pretty tough date, a bit underrated, and to cross it out of PCI, most excellent.... Yes you suck! AWARDED! Congratulations though and it was great to have some time to visit at FUN. See you soon… -
Re: 2008 W Gold Buffalos
My guess is that the 08-W Buffalo will never go down in price. I was begging for a "You Suck" when I bought a 2008-W $50 Buffalo PCGS PF70DC for $1250, a few months ago. I bet I could get a "You Suck" now. It is truly a spectacular coin, I don't know of anything the US mint has ever done that I like better. Although the… -
It's OFFICIAL....I have now been collecting for 70 years.!!!! Now hear this:
Collect what you want if it's your intent to keep it a hobby. If you intend to eventually sell as a source of income in your retirement, let me add this: Don't go for high grade common material. Like modern 69's and 70's, common MS 63-65 Morgans or CC's. Low grade common stuff is to be avoided. What you need to do is… -
Re: A real audit of the Ft. Knox gold may finally be coming
LOL, why didn't you quote the part about SpaceX already having billions in government contracts? Now they stand to make billions more by overhauling the FAA's systems, etc. Listen, I am against waste, fraud, and abuse, but if you think Elon's motives are altruistic you are being naive. He didn't invest 250 million without… -
Re: Best set in the Registry-how important is this to the High end collectors?
<< <i> << <i> << <i>Trust me, a complete set sucks. You need some missing coins to keep your mind on the hunt. As far as the deep pocket part, of course I'm talking rare 18th and early 19th century stuff. Anything later is always available for a price. >> Not true when it comes to varieties! Not true at all. Many many many… -
Re: *** BBCEMANIA *** OFFICIAL THREAD: GROUP BREAK - FINAL - *** 2 NEED TO PAY ***
Originally posted by: travis t No less than 6 people posted before the suggested time, so obviously, there's an issue. The only way to prevent them from posting would be to have a device in place to block them until the suggested time arrives. Unfortunately, that can't be done here. I don't know how this gets remedied.… -
Re: Should a 9 be this hard to look at?
Varghie, That's a PSA 10 WIWAG. There are other new qualifications the rest of you should know: PSA MJ - Grader smoked pot to get through the long day ahead. All cards look pretty good when high. PSA 9 ON - Orlando's nephew. As long as it doesn't go through the washing machine, it's a 9. PSA 9 - This is a PSA 6 done by a… -
Re: The most dangerous team in the playoffs?
It is a year of suck? I suppose the season would have been better if there were 6 teams in each league that went 13-3 and every game had a predictable finish? It sucks that everyone has a chance. I hate it when I have to watch a game and don't know who the winner will be before kickoff. I guess it's different for you since… -
Re: GOETZ: K-552 Flight of the Condor
<< <i>While I'm at it, I found a mother-lode in Germany of large, rare, and beautiful medals from an old collection. I just ordered 25 of them which include most of the Goetz Family medals including K-510 self portrait at 60 which is used as the icon on the Kienast book cover. I should receive and have these imaged in the…
