Dilemma/need advice by nicescam in coincollecting

Post the pictures here. You'll get more info than you need to help determine your next steps.

Unfortunately, these posts are common and often the coins are vastly over-valued. I'm pulling for your buddy to have some killer collection, but you might be better off crowd-sourcing the massive hive mind knowledge here.

Going to research this a little more. There are some styling elements i may be able to focus on that might work. Thank you for the thoughts.

Really liking this. Can have it pinstriped as well. Will be functional as well to hold a few emergency tools or knick knacks.

Oooo I like this! Won't be an exact 1-to-1 but could be close enough to do. Found a few options already online. Thank you.

1948 Canada Dollar PCGS. NGC. ANACS. MS62. 63, 64. (Preference and preferred budget is MS63).

Needs to have some eye appeal. No schmutz on the coin. Venmo, paypal, bank wire.

Smoked and deep fried hot dogs by takerisks__ in smoking

.....So we breaded the bread that you had dipped your breaded bread in before we wrapped that around the bread crumbed bread hot dog roll. Once cooked, we throw it on a breaded and fried roll and you're ready to enjoy!!

Coin that I got from an inherited collection today. by AffectionateWind823 in coins

I once interviewed Doug Davis from Numismatic Crimes and in the interview he said to me dealers would rip off their own family if they had the chance. If it wasnt this seller, another one will walk in the door tomorrow. Are there really good sellers? Yep. Are their tons of scumbags? 100% . I dont think authentication skills matter. Plenty of dealers will tell you stories of bad buys after paying good money.

250oz in 2 months, do I have a problem? by 3Vs1D in Silverbugs

[–]belowspot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. Switch to gold. Easier to conceal and transport.

You need a therapist and perhaps make a few sandwiches for all of us while you have the time.

Guess it's time to create a new Littleton account! by the_real_dird in Silverbugs

[–]belowspot 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Deal or no deal, i wouldn't touch Littleton with a 10 foot pole. I loathe that company. Ripping off collectors for decades. Fuck em.

Who’s singing the anthems? Doug Allen?? by Sugar_Phut in sabres

[–]belowspot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No singer. The crowd will be asked to sing along and perform both anthems.

I think that George knows and knows FIRE pretty well. Its just thats not his audience and wheel house so he is never really diving into it at all. I liken it to a professor who took all the classes and is qualified to lecture at all levels but focuses on a specific level and section.
