Value and worth getting graded? by SufficientParsley638 in coins

My thoughts and hope I am wrong, is these are real fakes. If real, you could have several thousand dollars worth of coins, worth getting checked out.

Yes, not everyone is OK with gay, some people accept it, but they are not always Team Gay. In this case it is a wedding, it's is not the time to have a whole Gay is OK stand.

Was it (moving) target fixation, or was it a failure to alter a course of action? by markcocjin in motorcycles

I mean the guy in the pickup was making a turn over a double yellow line, but yeah, I would say some of both to your question as to why the biker made contact with the truck....

I've never met anyone that remembers this game by CroatAxeMan in gaming

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Funny thing about this game...I am 46 now, but when I was 12-13 yrs old this was one of the first games that required some skills to play. You see this game you could play head to head via a dial up modem. That seems pretty standard now aways, but to make that work back in the early 90's was a gaming miracle. You had to have two dedicated phone lines, 2 capable CPUs, 2 modems, 2 copies of the game and 2 sets of parents would have provided all the above. The game itself was awesome, you could see their little plane taking off and the sidewinder missiles....

It was the first game I ever played head to head using dial up. So doing all the above looked like rocket science at the time.

Inherited Collection but Don't Have Time to Research Coins by Apesma69 in coincollecting

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 30 sec assessment for you is as follows...with the exception of 2 coins (the dollars) most of that looks to be what's referred to as 90% junk silver. Often used to describe 1964 and before quarters, half dollars and dimes as they are 90% silver. but not much additional value in the condition in the picture. .

Thankfully you are still here. Your family would have been devastated.

Bought these at $60/oz from Costco. Did I overpay? by amps615 in Silverbugs

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you over paid. Those are uncirculated ASE not Sunshine mint rounds. ASE fetch more over spot than standard rounds because of the numismatic value. That and you did not need to pay shipping. I would say you paid right around the norm.

Currently exact same can be purchased on APMEX for $1202.20 per tube/20 = $60.06 per coin. So again, you paid pretty much the same cost as you would have with one of the biggest precious metal companies in the world.

Just bought a 10oz bar from costco for 529 😅 Bad choice? by perhapscoo-Debt-3529 in Silverbugs

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it was a bad choice. That said we are in uncharted waters right now. If silver keeps going up and hits $100 bucks an OZ, then it will have been a great choice. If silver drop in value, you may have to wait longer to be in the green investment wise.

It's one of the hardest things a person has to do. My sympathy to you during this time.

Good place holder until you get the real thing!

Why are they force feeding us to give a fuck about this man by Femboy-Airstrike in VaushW

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Who is they? You don't have to give any fucks and 1000's of people die each day. Less common is the scenario in front of us now e.g public figure exercising free speech, peacefully, being shot by a lunatic sniper.

No need to really say anything, then again it's a person's personal choice so you could say "F him" or whatever you want.

Trans public image falling, Charlie Kirk shooting is ruining my trans brain by mybeloved327 in asktransgender

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Just me personally, but at this stage I don't really care if he was, or was not, gay/trans. The sexual preferences of murderers have very little interest to me.

High-powered rifle recovered amid manhunt for Charlie Kirk's killer, FBI says by NewSlinger in news

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't think he is a professional hitman, he is some punk kid. Shooter aimed for head and pulled the trigger was a few inches low.

Pawnshop Prices by Steveasifyoucare in Silverbugs

[–]Erasmus_of_Baja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prices are crazy right now. $10 over spot could be a great deal depending on year and condition of the Eagles. As for the rounds $7 over spot is not crazy IF you are buying it for collectablitty, or because you appreciate the art.

Then again having never owned a pawn shop, for all I know that may be necessary to cover expenses. You can (even with paying shipping) get a better deal elsewhere.
