The joys of numismatic research by
Reid Goldsborough
Anybody have some "knowledge finds" they'd like to share. With me,
acquiring information and knowledge is every bit as rewarding as
acquiring coins.
Case in point. Last night, in finishing reading through information
from articles and books I've collected but hadn't yet gotten to, I
uncovered some...

Sick of Dealers and Coins by
Phil Barnhart
This summer, a good friend and ethics professor at a prominent law
school invited me up for a weekend. During this visit he commented
that it had been quite awhile since I had mentioned coins to him. I
had been an avid collector. I told him the truth.

PCGS and Their "Questionable Color" Ripoff by
Reality
What is the deal with this nonsense?
When I submit a coin to PCGS, I want to know if it is genuine, the
grade, and if it is original.
IMO if you are paying the supposed leading expert graders in the
industry a $30 grading fee plus shipping both ways, then their
"Genuine - Questionable Color" B.S...

Getting the Public to Use Half Dollars and Dollars by
Ami .
What are your ideas on getting the public to widely use half dollar and
dollar coins in everyday transactions?
I think the following would work:
1. End production of Kennedy halves in 2004. The last year should have a
special date, 1964-2004. Starting in 2005, the half dollar would have...

the color becomes unnatoral and the coin can no longer be called
original. After a...

Opinions on cashing out some silver by
[email protected]
Okay... I have made arrangements to sell my small cache of silver for
10x face for the pre-1965 coins and 4x for the 40% Kennedys. I have
worked out that the break-even point for the silver is $13.82, as as I
write this, the price is $13.57. What is the opinion of "all y'all"
about such a sale:...

Congress mandates use of "In God We Trust" by
Bill Dunkenfield
1908 : Congress mandates use of "In God We Trust"
In a move that seemingly flew in the face of America's founding belief
in the separation of church and state, Congress passed legislation on
this day in 1908 that made the maxim "In God We Trust" an obligatory
element of certain coins. The motto...

"Real" Money by
[email protected]
"Real" money, meaning that the value of the coin is in the
metal, is gone now. Was the USA the last country to coin
real money? If not, which country carried on coinage after
LBJ eliminated silver coinage?
BTW, I do not count legal tender coins like the US $50
gold coin, as it is not expected to...
