dude, don't spray paint your halves... marking them with omega is enough. I know, everybody marks coins once in a while, but that is going overboard.

Why do people enjoy ruining coins for future generations to find ? Just because they are only worth face value today dosn't mean they will never be desirable to collectors ? I don't get it. Seems a bit selfish and childish but what do I know..

I already explained this.

The answer is MILLIONS. This is my plot. Hunter mark and thereby ruin coins by marking/spray painting them, and I keep dozens of each variety. Less supply will drive up the future value of these coins.

you remember Goldfinger? You know, the james bond film? Well, Goldfinger (the bad guy), had this good idea to ruin the gold at fort knox by setting off a radioactive explosive device. Goldfinger already had some gold. If his plan would have been successful, it would have removed half of the world's supply of gold from existence for the next 10,000+ years due to radiation. This would of made Goldfinger one rich son of a gun.

I'm kind of like goldfinger, I get people to mark halves, so my unmarked halves will be more valuable.

By the way I didn't ask you. I'm not sure why you think you run this forum but there are lots of other guys here who I'd like opinions from. I asked a general question to ALL the coin hunters who do this silly crap. As a coin COLLECTOR who started filling books from pocket change in the 60s I find it to be a selfish, destructive and childish habit. Your answer is foolish. I have a 56 Chevrolet truck I'm rebuilding. Should I run around setting other 56 Chevy trucks on fire to drive up the value of mine ? :dontknow:

You said why do people, not why do you to omega, so as far as I'm concerned it was an open response to anyone who applied.
Cool. It was directed to everyone. I doubt I'll ever understand much of what omega does after the drama he created at one of his banks... You guys are the poster children for how NOT to behave. Anyone else care to comment on why it's cool to deface coins ?

What a colossal waste of time and money. There is no gain by doing this what-so-ever, and nobody will ever be able to convince me otherwise. Nothing good will come of this for you either.

Painting coins, because?...i'm really lost. Please enlighten me, the really dumb gold guy about it. How is defacing a coin going to give you a more valuable coin?


:dontknow: Lost. :icon_scratch:

Because the low information hunters for some reason tracking their coins will tell them if they're getting their dumps back. Lazy man way of doing things. What it doesn't tell them is what other coins were mixed in with their dumps. We all get back our dumps sooner or later. The bottom of the pallets were reached years ago. The only thing being found now is new silver being added to the dumps. It's really a simple process actually.
