I'd like the coin more in a 6 holder, but 8 isn't too far off to my eye. What really has me confused is why someone would send this coin in to be...
I think you make some very good points. Personally, I make it a point to NOT look at anyone else's responses before guessing. I also grade...
Fascinating. Thanks for taking the time.
Now, looking at the grade, it looks like a net grade (upward) coin to me. PL surfaces, not quite PL enough to garner the label. Amazing strike,...
What a great idea. Good luck.
I suggested an 1880-s slabbed by PCGS in MS 65, not AU. I did this for a very good reason (or at least I thought it was)..... I'm not a Morgan...
Some general and retrospective thoughts.... You can't grade coins accurately from photos. You can't learn much about coin pricing from doing...
I think you are misinterpreting what's been shared here.... People mention PCGS as getting the highest prices -- for a coin graded the same in...
Hey RLM. What grade do you think NGC would have assigned this coin?
Personally, with more examples, I'm getting a better feel for how your pictures portray the underlying coin

66 Neat die crack.
Undoubtedly, your ability to score rips from the comfort of your computer chair is unrivaled on eBay. To wit, my biggest rip came from...
Is there an echo in here? :)
Because acetone doesn't remove any of the coin -- only things like PVC, dirt, and grime that weren't on the coin in the first place.
I'm hoping it slabs (I grade it 63 in hand). It came back cleaned the first time. FWIW, I bought it raw on eBay in 2004ish for around $450...
I'm not the one making the argument, you are. Therefore the burden of proof is on you. However, hoping to help, here's another suggestion -- try...
Widgets at low prices? While that may be a bit blunt and insensitive, and frankly applies more to you than Baha, that's my impression. BTW, I...
I have already show why your search-based price averaging is making the eBay results skewed. Yet you continue to use this flawed data over and...
I tend towards the purist's perspective that all coin doctoring is bad. However, I must admit that certain types of cleaning are acceptable to...
Separate names with a comma.
