The only thing that's "bogus" about them is the perception of what one thinks the label means. They still contain a gold Kennedy commem...which...
Why don't you just call them tomorrow and ask before making accusations? I have never had any problems with Heritage, and they are always...
As the young collectors age and get their wits about them, I think they will grow out of this fad. The TPGs have been around for nearly 30 years,...
I'm 35, and I think these new labels, etc. are completely worthless to the hobby. These are made for flippers and not collectors. Don't give up...
I would say it's quite a bit different from FBL and FS designations. FBL and FS aren't labels they are attributes of the actual coin -- not the...
I'm being serious here: Who cares? I mean, the "ANA Label" doesn't mean anything different about the quality or strike of the "coin" -- so I...

Fantastic looking example @fred13 !! I have always been a big fan of the Gallic rooster imagery!

@Iosephus nice to see you over here on this forum! Welcome aboard -- I never tire looking at your beautiful medals, regardless of the forum on...
94 or 97 Specimen? At least it looks like one of the Matte nickels...
WOW!!! @Tom B fantastic coin!
I'm not surprised PCGS called it FS. I would be very surprised if NGC would call it full steps (5FS or otherwise).
Pretty much all of these modern "snakeskin" proofs go PF69 or PF70 with full Ultra Cameo status. PS -- cute cat!
Now THAT coin I would be happy to have in my collection. The blues are lovely, and this coin now wins hands down over the old rattler in my...
It sounds like a privately issued 1200 year centennial medal for the city of Hordt in western Germany. What you describe with Mary and the baby...
Geek, you've perfected taking full slab images. I have taken thousands of coin only images (through slabs) and feel comfortable in that realm,...
The newer graded one has a nick on the neck on the obverse that is just as noticeable as the one on the fasces on the older holder dime. A single...
