I have mixed feelings with NCS and copper. I've had a few coins that greatly benefitted from there service, but have also received details grades...
This is usually the easiest of the grades to tell apart. Usually the only difference is a small area of one of the devices that is missing frost....
A G for a classic rarity and an important transition coin seems like a deal to me.

Properly conserved coins are market acceptable and will receive numerical grades from TPGs. Coins that are bent, show corrosion, have hairlines...
The 1-70 point scale as Sheldon wrote was based on wear, bag marks and strike and was initially established to figure out a coins worth based on...
The one from my post has been in an ANACS PR-62 holder your years now and hasn't seen the marketplace in a very long time. I'm not sure which...
The only known 1851-O seated dollar is thought to have been mistakenly made and the O mint mark is virtually non existent. The theory is that the...
