I give up. [img]
p.s. I would very much like to hear Mark Feld's take on the issue you asked (and the points I raise about his eye versus the TPGs). He as...
Their grading is based on (and closest to) the TPG coins they sticker, IMO. My sense -- having used the service on coins that I know very, very...

Very cool!!!
"Is, or is not, tone part of a coins grade?" Yes, to the extent it adds or subtracts from a coin's eye appeal, or to the extent it negatively...
To address a few of your questions/concerns... I don't work for a TPG or the CAC. I don't work in numismatics at all, and I've sold four coins...
That all depends on what type of set I was currently collecting. That said, and all things being equal, I'd get the key date.
Think about it like this... In an internet transaction, the TPG grade can give one a certain level of confidence. Similarly, by receiving a...
Never underestimate the power of key dates.
