Re: weekly bay of E listings

I must admit it's heartening to see those "WOW List" tagged VAMs seem to be bringing a bit of a premium! :D Disheartening to see what the Oval Os seem to bring... :shock: Also, Keilg1, read your post again, it seems a bit combative at the start. To help, keep this in mind, the SSDC price guide was a...

Re: These aren't particularly rare, BUT...

Okay, why do I get "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image. Please verify that the URL you entered is correct." when I try to add pics?
Problem solved!

These aren't particularly rare, BUT...

You can find several of these offered online at any given moment, usually for around $80-100, so you may be asking "Are you NUTS Squirrel?! Why would a cheap-ass like you spend extra on something that is fairly common??" Good question. The answer is, well, I like Dr.Pepper, it's a major brand and th...

Re: OT: Civil War Gold Found

I think the John Morgan story could hold some water, but also think there's a chance that someone buried them before heading off to the war, then never returned from the war...
Knowing who owned the property over the years would likely solve the mystery.

Re: Back in the day

I think it's a lot of things Dom. It seems like when I found VW there were a WHOLE LOT of "I'm gonna get rich finding VAMs!" types coming into the hobby and, yes, some of them were "chased off", but, honestly, I think most of them just realized that VAMs aren't the other end of the rainbow. In other...

WHAT THE HECK AM I LOOKING AT HERE?!?

Okay, so I saw this here 80P online and thought it looked weird. Of course, I thought it looked mostly "PMD" weird, but I couldn't convince myself of that, so I figured I needed a closer look... Big picture, in hand it does in fact look like just a rub... rojowhatzit4.jpg HOWEVER, on closer inspecti...

Welcome Tony.
Have you gone through the "VAMs by date" listings to learn what "VAM-1" typically entails?

Re: can't find right vam

So, here's the reasoning behind not posting until you have the coin: A lot of online sellers lurk on VAMworld and, if you find something good they didn't notice, they CAN actually cancel or recall the shipment...
It's not really an ethical issue on your end, but more of a CYA issue.

Still say that should have been named 'stink eye'
Well, to be fair, that moniker was published once... so, if anyone wondered why the "also known as the 'Stink Eye' to some..." is in the guide, it is revealed to be a nod to JR!

Re: my marker bid won!

WOW! Sometimes ya just catch folks sleeping Dennis, WTG!! Crazy things happen in the bay sometimes, like, one time I saw an MS65 1881-P listed at common date money and thought "Naw, this has to be a misprint, but I gotta check" and, sure enough, it was actually an 1881-S... The kicker? That MS65 188...

Welcome aboard! As gently as possible, I'm afraid I have to tell you that 12a is excessively common and carries no premium.

Re: 1902-0 vam 45a in ANACS MS-63 value

As usual, the coin's desirability and how much one is willing to pay varies. It is a wickedly clashed, rotated coin. But it is under rated. If it had made the WOW list. it might have more fans. That being said, I have had 12 coins cross my hands, all cherry-picked. They are findable if one has pati...
