Graded...and re-graded. If the pops are low enough and the price differences big enough on some of these modern "rarities" -- even the PF69 coins...
Reading comprehension seems to escape you. I said that the reconsideration and crossover services are a sham. That is an opinion I am entitled...
I don't have "rolls" of any coins. I get what your philosophical point is, but it isn't my JOB to be consistent. Only smoke blowing I see here...
Which gets at my message: Why do people pay NGC or PCGS ever for a re-evaluation of a grade or for a crossover? The only answer is "MONEY"! For...
Vegas Vic, I want your cat! Adorable!!! PF70 and MS70 anything in the modern collector realm are a waste of money. Trust me, I rode that...
You understand the game, but apparently most people don't. The gist of my comments in this thread are that "crossovers and reconsiderations are a...
Why can't they get it right the first time? They can grade a coin today, and 3 weeks later decide it should have been a grade higher. If they...
What PCGS is doing is shady. That's my stance. I never said anything else about the worth of other (irrelevant-to-the-market basement) grading...
Make excuses if you'd like. This "insurance" was always a part of the grading fee and the reason you paid to have them slab a coin to begin with....
PCGS has had a customer service problem for years. They are elitist and far more worried about their shareholders than their customers. In the...
You can use hyphens all you want, but PLEASE don't start writing like Laura Sperber. I saw "dreck" slipped into your post. Ugh. :rolleyes: On...
Save your breath @geekpryde . This isn't the first tidbit of bad advice or bad wisdom that we have read, and it won't be the last from josh's...
Tom a very nice write up. I'm so sad to hear of David's passing. Thanks for posting his obituary link. I always look forward to your show...

Hi Tom, can you offer some more insight that may help us mere plebians? ;) I don't see any obvious signs of funny-business regarding the toning....
I think they could go below issue price if gold tanks. A big chunk of their current value and issue price is the gold content.
Looks AU58FH to me. I don't see any problems with the toning, and it's a very attractive example of the design/type.
The sleeze bags come out of the wood work when the US Mint does something like this. I guess at least we can easily identify the money-grubbing...
I couldn't agree more. That was my first thought looking at the pictures -- then I saw your comment...and made me chuckle a bit. Literally was...
They used to actually sell modern coins besides NCLT. Now they are essentially modern world slabbed bullion dealers. I have never had any...
