    UPDATE: will look to appraise my cob this weekend. And Swoly, I missed your post the first time. Thanks for the correction: ColOmbia.

    My gold cob brings all the numismaticists to the yard!

    We expect a full report, B-Bob. Rest assured that none of us know where you live, or what you look like. (I would guess you look like Abe Lincoln, but that's just me!)

    Royal Coin & Jewelry. They're on Beechnut just inside the loop across the street from Lowes. Free appraisals. They're good people.

    Go to Houston Neumesmatic (sic?) Exchange in Rice Village on Times. They specialize in old coins and gold/silver buying and selling.

    I sold a gold coin last week...1998 $50 American Eagle, 1 oz. After calling around, it seems places give you anywhere from 5% to 10% under the current value of gold ($1791/oz right this moment). Jumped $100 since I did it last Friday.

    DAMNIT!
