This has been a common thread throughout my recent experiences buying on Ebay. There have been a number of times when I have gotten certified...
I decided to go completely outside of my usual areas of collecting and bought this Rijksdaalder from an Ebay seller in the Baltics. To my...
The new PCGS slabs that came out last year have much better quality plastic than the previous generation and have a nice solid look to them. From...
Variety is good up to a point, but I think the mint has gone way overboard and this has caused me to lose interest in moderns as a whole. If we...
I don't have enough first hand knowledge to speak definitively regarding ANACS grading in comparison with the top two. However, I think a lot of...
So if I'm reading this right you educated this scientist on the correct tolerancing and dimensions of slabbed key date coins so that he could...

I agree the surfaces look a bit off, almost like there's some sort of residue. That's why I buy only slabbed coins except for low value pieces....
