Mint Mailings by Bremick
Today I received the one Chester Arthur P-Mint dollar roll I had ordered from the Mint last April, but which for some reason had been back-ordered three times since then. I did learn that, because it was part of an original order already received that included several other items, there was no...

Ebay Coin Auction Guidelines by Bremick
Do I read the latest eBay coin auction guideline updates correctly? Is it now unacceptable to use the BIN or reserve option in a listing for a raw coin? If so, I'm not sure I understand the rationale here, but I suppose the BIN is easy enough to live without, and the reserve probably could be...
