Folks, we have a contender for most clueless response to a post.
Shall we close the nominations now and all acclaim Arizona Coin Collector the
winner?

Well, it's the stupidest RCC response since the "Giant Brain"
expounded with ultimate authority that that nice 1841 British Gold
Sovereign was worth melt, or about $225 - not the 8,000 pounds that it
catalogs at.

So it's the stupidest response in about three weeks.

All this argument is meaningless to me, having just lost my entire nest egg
due to this latest gold crash. This could be my last post, because I can
see someone pounding at my front door, yelling something about how he's
going to repo my computer, and he's got a U.S. Marshal with him.

Jay Gould survived the 1869 debacle for many many years - and died
rather old and still rich.

You will too, mon vieux.

They don't repo computers. Used computer is worth three cents on the
dollar to the finance company. They will harass you for the money to
the fullest extent they can get away with - but remember, they don't
want the computer back, ever.

Hello Oly

My "shot gun" response was from the "subject line' and not
responding to the actual link that was provided. In this case,
I should have stop and viewed the link first. I often run a link
through either Google, or Yahoo to make sure the link is safe
to go to. Depending if you have MacAfee or Norton, you
get a report on a link to see if it is safe. You see a green check
arrow beside the link indicating it is safe.

As for your remarks above on "1841 British Gold Sovereign",
I did check out the remarks dated 09/01/09 (see below).
The first posting on "Gold Sovereign" was dated on 07/19/09.

A dealer would probably try to get them for bullion value (.2354 troy oz
each). At recent gold values (about $950/oz) each coin has about $225
in gold value. OTOH, eBay has listing fees, final value fees and the
inevitable Paypal fees which really add up (probably around $15-$20
for each coin). I don't think the coins are all that rare in the condition
you describe - I've bought circulated young head Vickies for around
melt in the past. You pays your money and you takes your choice.

Essentially I was running some interference on your behalf, AZ.
Indeed, you really should have read the article. You were only 140
years off this time.

As for the time factor elapsed since el Brainiac's giant boner, "my
how time flies when you are having fun".
