Like others have noted, the new Selling page includes the number of "watchers". This is pretty cool information, in my opinion, and might help to stop sellers from ending auctions prematurely. If they can see that ten people are lining up to bid, they might have a little more confidence in letting...

1600 Posts in about 1 week's time. Not too shabby. Unfortunately, I had to use the mark all read feature to catch up. Now that the meter is reset I can try to keep up once more :-)

Hi everyone! A friend of mine recently came back from a trip to China and brought me back a few coins for my collection. Among them was this one http://www.philnacy.com/Chinese%20coin.htm that I can't seem to find in my world coin book or on the WWW. I'd appreciate any help ID-ing this one. It's...

Does anyone have a recollection of Sears Roebuck & Co selling coins in years past? My current collecting streak only goes back about 5 years. But I collected coins in the late 50's as a grade-schooler and don't recall Sears selling coins then, even though Sears was one of my parents' favorite...

One of my customers revised his offer, so I have two coins left; These cents were culled from original rolls and only a small %, the best looking, were sent to PCGS. None came back better than MS-64 Rd, yet when you see them (particularly the 1930D) you'll see that the grading was brutal....

Not my auction, but it's for an ungraded mint state in original box with COA. Three days to go, no apparent reserve, reasonable shipping, good return policy, 100% positive feedback, and not much action. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=41108&item=39135795 97&rd=1 Jerry I...

I received the prize today from Keith for winning his P-P-P-Paltry contest a while back. It is a beautifully toned 1995 Silver Eagle. Have posted a scan to ABPN. Keith, you might should have opened it first! It is a stunning coin. Thanks a million..........or should I be thanking...

Almost a week ago I posted this to r.c.c. Here's a little reminder. -=-=-=-=- Some time ago, I pinged the group to see if anyone was interested in a Summer Swap. In case you were worried, I haven't forgotten. This is going to be a chain swap, where person A gives to person B, person B to...

Hi all, I am going to start a topic on how not to get burned by Ira's coins. The problem is not with Ira, his coins, the quality or the prices thereof. In fact, Ira's coins are probably (one of) the best in numismatics. The question is basically, when the time comes, how to get the best price...

These cents were culled from original rolls and only a small %, the best looking, were sent to PCGS. None came back better than MS-64 Rd, yet when you see them (particularly the 1930D) you'll see that the grading was brutal. First come first served. Shipping & insur. will be $2 ea. (I have two of...

just a quick question, how many of any one coin do you need to have it considered a hoard lets say silver dollars?

I just aquired a PCGS MS64 Antietam commemerative half (6 more classic commems to go) The holder says "B&M Ref Col." I did a quick internet search and found a couple of references to B&M reference collection coins. Does anyone have any insight to what this collection is/was? It seems that with...
