Plenty of cull Morgan and Peace dollars, though. Give me a break.



Im not sure one way or the other but I'm assuming its possible that if they were out of stock on a bunch and just listed a bunch, this could have been the down time for when they bough from customers and were waiting on receipt of items before posting for sale. I don't think they play those games, they live on turn ( actually I could be wrong since I remember reading they were scandalous on their self branded Libertad products) Not sure either way.

not sure what you're looking at? They aren't offering any type of half dollars, not even 40%. They don't have mercs at all, they don't have rosies except for BU rolls priced at 17.8X

they don't even have war nicks... all they are offering is quarters, at the price point you mentioned.


LOOK.. HURRY UP!

This is starting to smell like a collaborative online dealer "let's-hold-stock-back" price fixing scheme, first to induce uncertainty regarding sourcing, followed by panic-buying at
prices they determine with an exorbitant premium. The opposite of the old pump and dump gold/silver miner stocks con... only in this case dump (hold back) the junk... pump the scarcity, and then
jump the price?

Dump, pump, jump? Why not... it'll do until we think of something else. oh wait... how about "dump lumps, pump slump, pump jump, humps jump." If you can figure out how to work "mumps"
into that doggerel, then "you're a better man than I am, Gunga Din!"

I would not be surprised. Collusion runs high with these PM dealers

Well... that didn't last long :shock: APMEX had stock in a fair number of categories... they're now back to almost no junk.
