The vertical scratch is too severe on the bust. There's strange black residue. I'd wager that PCGS would say it has "Questionable Color".
Here's a problem coin from GSC that they say is a solid Gem BU. If it doesn't have "++" next to Gem BU, does it mean that it's a problem coin in...
Possible perhaps, but not probable. :) So just PMD?
It looks as if a Mint worker placed another obverse die where the reverse die should be, one of the dies rotated, the dies clashed, and the...
This part in red - not a doubling? [ATTACH]
Is this a doubled ear on a 1921 Wheat cent? Thanks in advance! [ATTACH]
The probability that so many of these rolls have CC enders, key dates, and "higher" MS grade Morgans explained so well w/o much explanation...lol
OK, as I was filling out PCGS's online submission form, there was no choice for the proof version. However, they do have a proof record - they...
Here's one available on eBay now if you're interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/292125889724 Serial #: 315155
OK, I sent them all to PCGS. I also included 5 pages of research to convince them of proof state or proof-like Columbus 50C and Isabella 25C...
I believe there are at least 3 major varieties of that Elgin Watch Co. medal - Rulau #s ending in 6, 9, and 10:...
I once unwittingly submitted a single world token with a bunch of other world coins to NGC, and they just graded it on one single form. Not sure...
It does :) I was thinking of going with the option that CT members voted for the most lol.
I'm willing to take an educated chance. It'll give me an opportunity to get one or both of the TPGs to grade my grade on the "small" coins, since...
I want to at least break even with the submission costs (slabbed markup ≥ submission cost). I'd still net something since I bought these for...
I often buy a bunch of coins to find out which one I like in-person. If slabs help them to sell quicker, then I want to go that route. I'm hoping...
So based on the votes, it sounds like I should just send them all off to PCGS?
Oh that was a typo. Meant to say 1965.
Also, this - in 1893 at the US Mint in Philadelphia, 21 proof dies were manufactured, and 2 hubs each of the Columbian coins. I don't know what...
I think NGC and PCGS both no longer recognize proof Columbian halves or quarters. However, if proof strike coins have a provision in US coinage...
Separate names with a comma.
