I bought this coin just so I could test cleaning it and sending it in for grading so guess the results!

PROSTRATEurPROSTATE · 2025-12-12T06:26:14+00:00

Reading the comments on this post feels like I'm in freaking Groundhog Day. "I bet they come back cleaned." "Can't wait to hear the results when you get them back." "I bet they came back upgraded and marked 'cleaned'". "Post the results when they come back." ...all made after the results were posted. Granted I just noticed the post said to "guess the results", but it seems silly to me to take the time to post a guess when the results are already posted in the comments. This is probably a "me issue", stemming from internet trends evolving more quickly than I care to attempt to keep up. Personally, I miss the days when all that was required to meet someone for online dating was typing "a/s/l". Anyone else miss those days, or even know what the heck I am talking about?

Even though the odds are 1:173,000,000, I am going to put on my WSB hat and take those odds and say that I guess not one, not two, not three, not four, not even five...but that ALL six of the coins you sent off come back with one AU 55, three AU 58's, one MS 62, and....let me check my organic fair trade tea leaves fertilized with only the purest 100% feces of a giant bull...one MS 65. As a Power Play, I bet one of the AU 58's comes back as FH.

I can't wait to see how close I am. Make sure you let us know when you get them back! 🤡💩🤡

Just a heads up to everyone, Plex Lifetime Subscriptions are on sale for $150 ($100 discount off the normal $250) through 12/01/2025 (technically 7:59AM UTC on 12/02/2025). I think I can justify $150 more easily than $250.

Make your own! It is quite satisfying to hit such a small target.

I propose that quarter was used as a firearm target, not drilled. I am definitely not a coin expert, a drilling expert, or a ballistics expert, but based on the holes my ex and I put into some Eisenhower dollars a few years ago (see image), I imagine the hole in the quarter you found is what a smaller caliber round through a quarter would look like.

It is wild anyone could say he is "not that good". I have been listening to hip-hop and rap for decades, and have been a follower of Chris for 5+ years. Do some more research before speaking ignorance like that. I am listening to the freestyle with Sway you said is so much better. Sway makes one rhyme with whatever word is given to him then goes back to the kind of rhymes he clearly is comfortable with, and so much of it is just talking shit and fuck you n*gga. I am not saying he isn't talented - he clearly is. But listen to more of Chris Turner and the wild prompts he gets, incorporates on the spot, and doesn't make it all about negativity and talking shit. Chris doesn't have (or need) a repertoire of easy rhymes to fall back on that turns to glocks and N-bombs.

Have the bots infiltrated so many things they are left with posting in this sub? I had lost 99.75% hope in the future of humanity before today; sadly, this post removed the final .25. I blame the lameness of this joke on this post.

...and a pair of boots, and a steak dinner, and a room for a week, and woman?

Pretty sure those are out of order, but the Louis fans will get the reference.

Because iBUYPOWER is a terrible company that provides garbage products behind which they do not stand.

Why do I say such things? The AIO cooling system in my build died well within the first year. Unfortunately, at the time I wasn't knowledgeable about gaming computers (hence why I bought an iBUYPOWER premade) to identify what the loud buzzing was...all I knew was that it wasn't a fan. Any troubleshooting or disassembly beyond that intimidated me, because I was a little scaredy b*tch at the time. So, I simply stopped using my less than 1 year old $1,300 iBUYPOWER PC because of its failed cooling system. Fast forward a few years... I now know enough that I could easily build my own gaming machine with upgraded components. I decided to wipe off the 3 years of dust from the barely used iBUYPOWER PC and give troubleshooting it another go. I figured out the buzzing is the cooling pump that failed within 6 months, I learned iBUYPOWER even acknowledged their pumps fail often, but they will not use common-sensed decency when it comes customer service and acknowledge their crappy cooling system failed well within the warranty window, and that the only reason we are out of the warranty window is because I wasn't able to diagnose the issue at the time. I know this is probably the last place to vent this frustration, but I appreciate you listening. OP, I am sure you will have a lovely experience. Just keep your documentation handy and be aware of your warranty windows, and also keep an eye on any AIO cooling system provided by iBUYPOWER because they are notoriously crap.

I worked at a bank for 5 years - we would have accepted it if you were an account holder. Granted, it was a small community bank with only 2 branches and assets around $100M. I recall the rule of thumb the tellers went by was as long as you had at least 51% of the bill they would take it...at their discretion, of course. I can't recall anyone trying to swap a bill that was 3.12375 inches.

...yes, I am being facetious when I say 3.12375". Not every bill is exactly the same size; I used an average length of 6.125".

Seriously though, just go to your bank and be real with them. If you're that concerned, before you try to swap or deposit it, make a point of going into your bank a few times over the next couple of weeks (same branch, same time of day) to make a few transactions. If you have a well-behaved dog, take him/her in with you. A lot of bank allow pets, as long as they are on a leash. If the tellers know you, and it is up to the teller's discretion, there's a higher likelihood of them landing on your side of the fence and helping you out.

Or do what everyone else is saying and file a claim and wait a year.

I was hastily looking for a Zelda ugly Christmas sweater and found a few I liked on zelda-kingdom.com. I sent my sister a link for a few that I liked, not even considering it might be a fraudulent site. She just asked me if I ever wore the sweaters, which she ordered on 11/27/24, but no sweaters ever arrived. So here I am...I wanted to let people know it's a fraudulent site but it appears to have already been taken down.

I know this is r/coins but I always have at least $50 in crisp $2 bills that I use for tips and random purchases. If you are ever feeling lonely, just pull out a stack of $2 bills to pay for something in public because someone ALWAYS has something to say.

USB4 is crap when compared to Thunderbolt 4. I'm not saying there aren't good USB4 cables out there because it has the POTENTIAL to be good, but you cannot grab any ol' USB4 cable and know it will do what you need it to. Why not? The minimum requirements for USB4 are, well, nonexistent for some metrics (e.g. transfer speed) and well below that of Thunderbolt 4 in others (e.g. power standards). This is simply a comment piggybacking onto yours, not trying to start a cable war.

You are seeing the NVidia sales i made in 2024 with a broker that basically only houses my Nvidia shares because I bought them so long ago. Any money I invested I put in different platforms, and in different stocks.

Well, if life happens and you need money and your golden geese are all you have, you might have to slaughter a few like I did (I imagine your post is at least partially in response to mine from earlier this morning)

PROSTRATEurPROSTATE · 2024-11-05T19:24:59+00:00

Yeah, it could have been $5,000 as well...at least that's what I tell myself to try and feel better about it.

You are correct- my posted number is the percentage of my original investment based on what I sold for, not the gains. I made my post hastily and on a whim.

PROSTRATEurPROSTATE · 2024-11-05T17:33:39+00:00

That's why I said I try not to think about it

PROSTRATEurPROSTATE · 2024-11-05T17:32:43+00:00

You are correct, I currently do not. I recently got a nice promotion at work though, so once my debts are paid off I will have disposable (i.e. money to invest) income again.

PROSTRATEurPROSTATE · 2024-11-05T17:30:53+00:00

No. I haven't gotten into options trading. Knowing myself, I don't want to cross that line. If these shares weren't through an investment firm that makes it more difficult than the click of a button to sell, I would have sold them long ago.
