In answer to the question posed, yes, many times, including a good number of coins. ;)
Please back that up by providing specifics about the 1804 Dollar. I do not believe the same grading company graded it Fine and later, 62. And all...
It's up to you - use what you think sounds best and is more descriptive. I usually say "rare coin" vs. "bullion coin". But many so-called "rare...
It looks like a badly cleaned, but genuine example to me. Still, why bother/risk it?
I believe that the term "numismatic coins" is at least somewhat redundant. But I understand why you used it, and sometimes a bit of redundancy...
It probably makes you a better collector. So you know, when I said "pay dearly", I didn't mean high priced items in all cases. For example, it...
I respect your collecting choices and discipline. In my case, both as a collector and a dealer, many of my best and most enjoyable coins to own...

In terms of percentage of price increases, I believe that the run in 1979-1980, was even more spectacular than that seen in 1989-1990. Both time...

The three people mentioned thus far, Mark Goodman, Jeremy Katz and Todd/BluCC, all do excellent work. You can't go wrong with any of them.
It looks genuine to me.
While there is no way to prove it either way, based on my personal experiences and observations, I do not believe hat to be the case.
You don't seem to get the point. What if it looks unc. in the pictures you post, but isn't? If you are not expert at grading, it is unwise to...
From everything you posted, I doubt seriously that the holder has been tampered with. Since it sounds as if you don't like the coin that much and...
On the contrary, hopefully he WILL learn something from some of the criticisms. On the other hand, I think he'd be far less likely to learn, if...
Please feel free to put out the flames with compelling arguments as to why, buying that coin under those circumstances, was a smart thing to do.
You get no congratulations from me. You bought an uncertified gold coin sight-unseen - that is usually unwise. You asked if it was a "good...
Contact the seller and nicely ask him to explain why the same images are used in multiple listings of supposedly different coins.
