  1. There are those who are more 'opinionated' than others.
  2. Darn shame. It appears nice but that Toning just doesn't appear right to me. Some of our counterparts here will be able to give you a better read out. Sorry about the 'Details' grade. Added: I'm a firm believer in Second Opinions. Cracked out two CC Trade Dollars NGC said were cleaned and sent them raw to PCGS. Both came back "Cleaned' but at least I knew for certain.
  3. Yes and quite to my satisfaction. Contact Chris at Northeast for an estimate.
  4. priv·y /ˈprivē/ adjective 1.sharing in the knowledge of (something secret or private):"he was no longer privy to her innermost thoughts" noun 1.a toilet located in a small shed outside a house or other building; an outhouse.
  5. I paid $85.00 for a Philly Morgan and paired it up with a '21. Gaded MS 70 so I was happy. The CC 'Privy' was the second, and last, one of these trinkets I bought. Don't intend to buy anymore. "Gaded"? What is that!? Sorry, meant graded.............
  6. Just one of the many reasons I stopped subscribing to the US Mint decades ago. Why go through the frustration when it will eventually show up on EBay?
  7. I have my suspicions but you never know. Maybe a bunch of those dreaming for that million dollar coin found in the Walmart parking lot.
  8. Roger, I wish I new. I have looked at the Gold a couple of times but since I bought that Silver I put it away and never looked at and never bought anymore. IMO a waste of money.
  9. Oops! Sorry, got the 7 and 2 mixed up. See what happens when you give a Senior Citizen a keyboard. Corrected it, thanks.
  10. @GoldFinger1969 I believe it was low in price. I did buy some more about five or more years before 9-11. Bought Silver too but I don't think I get rich on that.
  11. 1. Yes, it is mine. I only buy from Northeast Numismatics or Northen Nevada Coin. I paid, I believe*, about $2500.00. 2. EBay: 1908 $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold No Motto MS-67 NGC (Wells Fargo) asking $7,248.00 by Apmex *Memory is old and worn
  12. Thanks very much. The price gets better after MS 66 and up.
  13. As well you should be. Just from the pictures it is stunning. An exceptional coin.
  14. From the old days............."Better dead than Red!"
  15. That 'scratch' on the Obverse doesn't look good to me. I'll say 'Details'.
  16. Pennsylvania USA: Gasoline now over $4.00 a gallon. We're really gonna show them Russkis something now.
  17. Yes, we are killing the Russians with those sanctions. So glad Europe is standing with us. US STILL buying Russian oil. Flows to Germany via the Mallnow metering point stood at about 101,119 kilowatt hours per hour (kWh/h) earlier on Friday morning and were about 13.5 million kilowatt hours per hour overnight. Russian energy company Gazprom on Thursday resumed westbound natural gas supplies via the Yamal-Europe pipeline to Germany from Poland and booked 7.8 million kilowatt-hours per hour of gas transit capacity via the pipeline for Friday morning until Saturday morning.
  18. No change. Once again: Taking away an Oligarch's yacht is like take away my fishing rod. KMart for a new one and park it in Cuba. Or Turkey, eh?
  19. PS: Seizing an Oligarch's yacht or limo is like seizing my fishing rod. I'll just go to KMart and buy another. No oligarch is going to tell The Vlad to get out of Ukraine. Not if he/she wants to see the sun come up. Still a Fact: USA is major buyer of Russian oil and .................
