PCGS rant, rave or WTH?

You know what, not even worth it to legitimize this nonsense. If you guys want to try and mislead people for your own gain because of value buys or whatever that's on you.

Pathetic the lengths some people here go to to try and bring down PCGS.

 

The OP is nothing more than Schrödinger's Cat paradox.

 

I think my title says it all,
PCGS rant, rave or WTH?
I posted the link before I read the whole thing on craigslist but my intent was never to be part of bringing down PCGS

 

So what was your intent out of curiosity?

 

Simply to share it, for conversation that's it. Never did I ever think somebody on here was so passionate about PCGS that it would create a problem. I live and I learn.

 

Nope. Mods won’t ever ask me to join them. I’m someone who wants to see more chat about coins and less bickering.

 

I'm with you!

 

Not a single person has suggested it to be true, merely that there’s a possibility of it being true. If anything, amused curiosity with skepticism. “Mislead people for your own gain”. Ridiculous. The only person who gains anything peddling something is you, so save it. Your post is slander and I’ll not sit here and allow my name to be slandered, especially not by someone who works for PCGS.

 

Absolutely true and with that said, I'm gonna get on my way as there's bigger fish to fry!

 

So you watch "the big bang " tv show ? Wonder if @MeowtheKitty knows about Schrodinger's cat ? looks to be a coin toss....50/50 chance....depending on a 3rd variable..... time..... as I'm relatively sure after a month the cat would be !

 

Actually, THIS is the reason he says it could be a $10k nickel.

 

Nothing gets the discussion (and the emotions!) going so fast in a U.S Coin Forum
as a good old discussion on the relative merits, or lack thereof, of the TPG's .

 

FWIW, it appears to be the same coin, IMO. Amazing what lighting can do/hide.

 

I seem to remember someone posting this exact same situation on here a few weeks ago.

I’ll see if I can find the thread.

 

This is the concerning area on the obverse. I see some similarities in marks, but the flash and highlighted areas don't allow me to make an accurate determination of the obverse. Which is why the supervisor at PCGS wanted to see it in hand, according to the owner's story.

Different coins, allegedly

 

I was looking for that thread, you bet me to it.

 

Now how does one prove this was not a bait-and-switch on part of the sender? There is no way to prove that the raw coin pictured is the one sent in.
