This guy is the real deal, and more than fair on pricing. I got well more than I expected liquidating some estate coins, and bought a bullion grade $10 eagle for $25 over spot.

Very interesting. Thanks for posting it. :-)
To be honest when I saw the article title I was hoping that a previously unknown
Specimen had come out of the woodwork after all this time being unknown of.
I like to let my mind out of the box and imagine what might still be hiding in someone's attic or hidden in a seemingly everyday nothing special collections that have been passed down to someone from a relative.
