Those don't look like die polish lines to me, they look like hairline scratches... And even if they are die polish lines, those coins are struck...
Best of luck, I can't believe how difficult it has been for you to attempt to fix their mistake. You would think they would appreciate how much...
I had this issue with an NGC coin, and you are correct that PCGS now states they guarantee the attribution. But Mark's question remains, how do...
Thanks Ken. I passed on the first because I had a bad feeling about it, from a style perspective. I won the second one, and later found a prior...
And, they do not guarantee their variety attribution. If you buy a rare variety based on what the slab says and later find out it was a...

I am looking at these two coins and wanted your opinion on quality and authenticity. Fairly sure the first one is real, and common. I was...
yeah, I suppose percent of invoice was a weird way to express it. I won a full set of bmc, three Banti, and three other books, so around 15 in...
nailed it! knew i had seen that before...
Just gonna throw this out there, but you can buy a pretty decent standing liberty for the price of that replica. The replica is 36, here is the...
Just wanted to update on this auction. I won some of the Books I was bidding on. The buyers premium was 20%, and shipping worked out to another...
Very nice coin, congrats on scratching that off the list! Here's mine: [ATTACH] Price 2710, uncertain Western Asia Minor mint.
