The dealer mentions that NGC wouldn't slab it. They won't put it in a Genuine holder, Polished Details, Altered Surface, etc? Why?? Was NGC...
Interesting read, thanks. The first thread seems mixed, but the link in Lehigh's post is more vehemently opposed. There was a good point overall...
It's a coin w/ pics I cropped so as not to cause bias. Here's the original listing below. 107 bids at over $4K! If it was problem free and you...
Really - they're that bad? Can I read up on this somewhere with before and after pics? I'm glad I didn't drop some serious cash there last night...
Can you show an example of a weak strike, full steps nickel? Or is that an oxymoron? lol
Can you guess the grade of this proof? I have a grade in mind, and I'm thinking about taking a swing at this. But I tend to second guess every...
Here's an example of South Korean coins from the 'net. The coins aren't even all from the same year! I tried to get my mixed year 1940's Ireland...
Squared flat edges! I'm glad that this wasn't anything valuable like that polished 1850 $20 gold coin from that other recent thread!
No problem, I do wish they reinstate it. I'm not sure why they stopped - maybe it was due to the customized nature of various sets' slab size...

Hi all, I'm looking to buy these world silver coins listed below. Basically, I'm looking for one each in uncirculated, problem-free condition....
Thanks - it arrived today! MS-69 sounds correct. I see some cameo loss on the reverse shield and Lady Liberty's chest. The scratch on the...
I'd ask about this on NGC's forum.
Have you seen the gas prices lately?! If you really want it, then I'd say go for it. It sounds like you already did.
Interviewer: "So is this a knowledgeable collector who bought this coin?" Dealer: "This is somebody that had a $102,000." :hilarious:
What would have been your budget for this one? [ATTACH]
Ok, I couldn't find the one desertgem used, so instead I used Turtle Wax Scratch & Swirl Remover on my 1971 Ike OGP and it does its job. It was...
I read one of ANA's guides. I do touch on placement a bit on the previous post. Some of the questions I ask are rhetorical, though I am looking...
Don't you need both photos (or in-hand examples or photo examples from experience/memory) and written criteria? To me at least, if I only read...
Separate names with a comma.
