This on just arrived back from PCGS. From an original roll obtained at the mint in 1963. Common coin, insane grade. [ATTACH]
I've ordered off the site several times dating back to 2009. Never had any bad issues with the sellers, they seem honest. The only issues I've...
Hey, I was the submitter of that 1954 50P (circa 2009). Kind of hard not to notice coins from that submission when they pop up. That one was the...
Hard to tell from the pic, but most likely a mark in the planchet that wasn't obliterated when struck. Very common on clad Ikes.
The toman is very nice and looks better than AU. You got a good deal on it as it sold rather cheap. FYI, I was the underbidder.
For those people saying the coin is not an MS65, I'd love for you to defend your reasoning without pointing to what it graded in the past. Based...
If the rim marks are post mint damage, I'd fully agree that MS65 is not a worthy grade. However, I will give the benefit of the doubt to the TPG...
You keep bringing price into the discussion, yet are railing against the grade increase. I'm sorry, but "this coin sold for $500 in 1974" sounds...
If you ask a professional grader what is the biggest mistake amateur graders make, they will likely tell you that they tend to focus too much on...
Your first paragraph is an often told story. I've heard it attributed to several big time dealers since around 1986. The only sliver of truth to...
So maybe the coin was only an EF40 by EAC standards back then and they called it EF45 because they overgrade? Had that coin been called AU58 or...
Ignoring the prices you posted, the grade differences may not be out of line. What grading standards was the auction company using in 1974? Were...
It's not my area, but the leaf and toothed boarder make me think that Afghanistan is correct. Looks similar to the KM-223.x coinage.
Nothing rare, but just a handful of (IMHO) pretty-to-gorgeous toned modern South Africa proofs. They just posted grades at PCGS. [IMG] [IMG]...
Because you have an upset customer and it takes time to deal with PCGS/NGC to get the issue resolved. I've had several cert numbers stolen off...
You absolutely cannot compare this coin to other similar ones from decades later. The Peru Libertad coinage is known to have NUMEROUS varieties....
If you're asking which way auction houses report the sale price, it depends on the auction house. Most in US include the BP. Many outside the US...
If he's putting in a Viking stove, it's going to be WAY more than $25K. Entry level start around $5K. The fancy color enamel ones run close to...
I don't. It was a ridiculous guess for a ridiculous GTG. It's very difficult to grade business strike coins from a picture and near impossible to...
Based on your average quoted rent, I'm going to assume that you're probably in LA/SF/NYC. I can assure you, if you were a landlord you'd be...
