Hmm

Neither can I but Dan Carr has been around for a long time. ATS there's a lot of his fans and a lot who believe, because he doesn't mark his work 'COPY', that he should be run out of business. I like his work and it has good eye appeal. I, personally, don't see he has done anything wrong with his 'Overstamps'.

I like Mr. Carr's work. It is, by far, better than the US Mint.

For some stange reason a CERTAIN number of people believe that a CERTAIN number of people have no idea what they are bidding on or Buying Now.

Thanks. This I did not know. It isn't, nor has been for decades, offered here in Clinton County, Pennsylvania. I am a Life Member of that organization and have been for 30 years. I am sorry for the wrongs, the bad publicity and the bad name it has gotten by the politicos. Nothing I can do about it and I do get a nice magazine in the mail. Over the years I have got SOME good things from it.

I got faint just reading that. I was wishing, just the other day, that I could buy one.

Agreed. You are correct and have my apologies. Won't happen again.

In 1956, when I was just a child, my dad sent me to the local NRA Safe Hunter Couse. It taught how to properly and safely handle a firearm at home or in the woods. All of the male kids my age went to it because you couldn't get a Hunting License without it. It lasted two days and we really came out knowing how to safely handle firearms. They don't offer that course anymore which is a shame. However, I passed that knowledge on to my boys.

If the coin or note is not in a Slab then........... I have seen numerous advertisements saying "We grade this a solid ????" Let the buyer beware, eh?

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” ― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark

Of all the Silver Dollars ever created; I believe the US Peace Dollar to be the ugliest. Just my opinion.

I must agree with that statement. When I came home to PA on leave in 1966 I stopped in Philly to see some cousins. My cousin Jimmy (a White boy) worked in South Philadelphia. I asked him how come his car was never stolen being parked in South Philly?. Jimmy said: "Because I work for the 'Family'!" I believe he said he went from bar to bar and would open up the juke box, take a package out and deposit it in another bar's juke box. I didn't ask many questions after that. BTW: I went to Legal War with the Federal Government over one sheet of paper. An Army medical record that for 20 years the V.A. said didn't exist. I went through every Veterans Court in the United States with only one stop when I gave up. That was the Supreme Court. About a year after I gave up I met up with Senator Pat Toomey and told him about it. Six months later I got a letter from the Veterans Administration in Philadelphia containing a copy of that 'missing, lost, stolen' medical record. I should have listened to my Mom when she used to say: "You can't fight City Hall."

Sort of like those 1933 gold coins that were stolen huh?

Maybe because SOME of them don't have the coin, don't know how to post a pic or are just trolling. Hmm?

I like it too. It's a

Just enter VF (only if it is TPG graded by NGC or PCGS) or G or AU. Good luck.

Thanks to all. This is a very impressive read.

I do not believe it. A person could bee fried playing with his/her coin.

An exercise in which it excels.
