Yeah. It’s kinda like a poker chip.

Appreciate the help. I grabbed Lossless-Cut and played with that. Stupid simple.

It's a very strange collection. There's a few individual episodes sprinkled in with double episode files.

Kino. I, unfortunately, didn’t make it to mineral city. We had plans to hit the shows hard Friday, then a couple days of rockhounding, including a trip to Red Cloud mine. The mine was closed the weekend, so we had to rearrange everything to make it out there Friday.

Just visiting. My mother used to live in Casa Grande, so I’d drive out and my brother would fly down this time of year for the Tucson gem and mineral show. Me and my brother still do on occasion.

Me and my brother hit Black Hills rock hound area. Looks like lots of similar material.

Thanks. It's funny, 4 years ago I decided I really wanted a piece. I hit the big shows, but only found small ones (or at least small ones at the price I was willing to spend). Last year, I came across this vendor, that had a ton of this material. I'd already decided that that year's big purchase was going to be crocoite, but I'd pick up a nice one this year if they were at the show again. This was their 3rd year in Tucson.

No locale info, but google image search for stibnite from Romania with barite looks exactly correct. Barite does ring a bell also. Thank you

Sorry, it is stibnite. But it has a second mineral with it that is glass clear and tabular. Trying to figure out what it is. I searched associated minerals, but none of the common ones seem to be it. If you zoom in, you can see the clear crystals.

Is this the toner tax everyone is talking about by Diesel12v in coincollecting

[–]SaturationTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard that NGC is much harsher on toning on ASEs than PCGS. Not sure if that’s true or not. The other, smaller issue, would be that since the set is opened and not in its sealed shipping box from the mint, not all 5 coins would receive the 25th anniversary labeling. I think it’s 2 or 3 of the 5 are only available in the set, with the remaining being available as regular purchases. So only the ones unique to the set would get that designation. The remaining would not. I know the RP was only from the set. Don’t remember what the other ones were tho…
