My step-dad sells coins. Sold a $4MM one last year, and is working on selling an $8MM right now. Those are single coins by themselves
I think you are full of shite. There is only 1 coin to ever sell for over 8 million.

Under a contract with the UK government, underwater salvagers Deep Ocean Search (DOS) worked for several weeks searching a "jumbled up sea floor" twice the size of London, Mr Kingsford told the BBC.
If any of you had actually took 1 minute and read the article you would have seen where it said that the British government hired this team to look for the ship. There were paid a percentage of their find.

I'll throw this link up to debunk Hammertimes tale of his father selling 2 of the most expensive coins in history:

His Dad must be Bowers, Stacks or Heritage Auctions. I'm sure of it.

MM isn't even a number. M would be.

M is thousands and MM is millions.
And you're an idiot.

quote:
And you're an idiot.
From Webster's Dictionary:
quote:
noun, plural millions (as after a numeral) million.
1.
a cardinal number, a thousand times one thousand.
2.
a symbol for this number, as 1,000,000 or M¯
From another source:
quote:
Actually either a single or double M can be used for a million. Most people use a single M but bankers use that to designate one thosuand (instead of a K) and use MM for a million.
MM is used by those familiar with financial jargon. Most people use M.

I don't know. It just seems odd to melt them down like scrap.

There are only like six coins in the world that have been sold for over $4MM. At $8MM you dad would have to be selling a 1933 Double Eagle, one of the most rare coins in the world.

You know where I live, right?
Do a little more research before you make yourself look like a tool again. Or you can stick to watches and leave the debunking thing to other people
Eta: The $4 "million" for the retards was one of four (don't quote me on that number) that some guy who owned a mint made himself and his family members a while back. This was the one surviving one that he gave to his daughter and he sold it last year.
Don't know much about the $8MM one, other than it is going to the Smithsonian once the guy buys it
