If you go to each of the services' web sites, I think they will list the varieties that they attribute. I would only consider PCGS, NGC, and...
I know in XF grade, that variety runs about $100. But in uncirculated, this date alone is worth a nice price. So this is a significant find. Nice....
I look at TT every once in a while because there are deals to get there, especially if less people are bidding. You just need to factor in the...
