If they're common date/common grade low-to-mid MS Mercs and things like that, why would one even seek CAC cert for the coin?
I use Great Collections and Stack's Bowers pretty often for purchases. Haven't bought anything yet from Heritage. Only drawback for Great...
Post a full photo of the IHC. Looks beautiful from the microzoom photo. Really clear, full 4 diamonds!

1866/18-6 RPD, NGC Variety Plus (VP)-009, also referred to as Snow 6 variety. Very rare variety. NGC graded it AU Details - Cleaned. The date...
Love that coin!! Real beauty.
Hoping that you knowledgeable folks can help me decide whether this 1942-S Merc dime has an inverted "S" mint mark. I've read some of the older...
