Originally, I assumed it was because they were harsh on the mark in the right obverse field. Comparing it with other MS-65/66 coins, I felt the...
As I have said before, I give them a 95% accuracy by my standards (which I learned from expert dealers, forums, and even the TPGs), even...
Okay, let’s do a side-by-side comparison. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here is a closeup of the GC image,. [ATTACH] Here is a corresponding closeup of...
How many deals with the devil did that require? ;)
I don’t see a reason to condemn it.
The coins look good, the hoard looks like fake hype.
Hmmmmm. Who’s opinion is more reliable? Multiple posters (supposedly!) have experience buying coins from GC and comparing the coin in-hand to GC’s...
It’s worth it if it grades MS-65 or higher, like I originally thought it would. I don’t understand your confusion. But another point of this...
Supposedly. That coin has too many hits for an MS-64 IMO. Just look at that obverse scratch at 7-8 o’clock. Conspiracy theory here, but what if...
I know how you feel. I have never lost a dog, but I have lost my fair share of kitties. It never gets easier. At least you saw it coming and had...
We do! They are called the ANA grading standards. The TPGs ignore them because they are the “experts” and can do whatever the heck they want....
Oh, it pays for itself alright if it graded MS-65. When I first got it, I figured the grade of MS-63 was given because they were being harsh on...
Planchet flaws or damage? I don’t see metal movement
Yeah, but the slab dictates the value. No matter if they are wrong or not. I’ve sunk enough money into this coin. It is staying as it is. It...
Exactly what I have been saying, but that apparently makes us lunatics to everyone who deems themselves knowledgeable enough to blindly trust the...
MS-64 off of phone pics
The grading “experts” would definitely know that this coin is worth more than $200. I assumed that would be a given since they are the “experts.”
So every single BU Morgan with bag friction (which is most of them) is an overgraded AU? Even though they never circulated? If not, then you are...
If it had circulation wear, then I would wholeheartedly advocate for AU-58. Since I do not believe this coin to have circulation wear even under...
So if market grading is assigning a number to what the market value is (which is no longer grading as much as it is appraising), then why did it...
