If the seller can prove that they took reasonable care in mailing it and the buyer declined insurance, the buyer is out of luck. There is a...
The answer is pretty easy - the coins DO have flaws on them. The coins aren't magically perfect just because they are brand new. They get...
No, actually the grading services have spoken. I'm not sure why you look at only the grade of 70 as if it is a meaningful indication of their...
Wow, I never realized it until now. PCGS vastly overgrades Lincolns in MS64, MS65, & MS66. David Hall once made a stupid comment (well, one of...
I can kind of relate to this. Since the "new ANACS" started I've submitted three orders to them. Order #1: 2-Day Express with faxing of grades...

I've never heard the ANACS grading it story, but it is possible. However, those old certs don't hold much weight anymore. I've owned several coins...
