LONGER than virtually ANYBODY at the TPGS firms these days.

 

Best way to avoid it is to never start in the first place

 

Well you don't work for them, so I don't know if I can trust your judgement

 

You don't have to. Only I have to. And I do.

 

then what's with the only one in plastic comment relating to?

 

Sarcasm. Sorry...doesn't come through well over the internet.

 

I do use TPGS firms, but not the way most collectors do. I use them for uniformity in "look" for formal exhibit, and because gaudy grades make people go "ooh".

Keep in mind, I'm NOT one of those people who think slabbed population reports are worth even doggie doo doo. I KNOW there are many more great raw coins that have never seen the Florida Gulf Coast or Southern California.

I prove it every time I submit coins.

 

PCGS pop. for that error in that grade 23 with 17 higher

 

" very rare and unique coin! So far one of a kind!"

Also, zzzzzzzzz when it comes to PCGS pops.

 

this is paraphrased from a reply I received from another well-known author and professional on a different forum "the grading services do a poor job when confronted with errors that are subtle, obscure, novel, compound, or complex. They're not all that reliable with respect to simple, straightforward errors."

 

zzzzzzzzz to an ill advised quotation, But thanks

 

Nope, the buyer is a pig...........and possibly, a dope, with too much 'jing' in the pocket..

 

Not an ill advised quotation. I got that right from the seller's page.

@tammiGee, I have to ask? Why are your threads always vague and confusing?

Your title makes it seem like you are thanking Mike Diamond for doing a write up on a discovery coin you have.
