With a bit more work....it appears that you bought a "Wild West Collection" 3-coin package where all 3 coins were graded as MS65 by NGC. They were...
I'll await the experts on Morgans to chime in, but from my POV, yes you did. At current price levels, it appears the prices for the 3 coins are...
Can you elaborate a bit on why one should stay away from condition rarity and also why Key Dates are still going down in value (I believe though...
I agree with one caveat: the widespread acceptance of the Internet and internet venues for coins made knowledge about TPGs far greater to...
I wonder what PCGS would say about those increases. Maybe I'll ask a rep down in Orlando.

Depends on what happens in November. :p
I don't pretend to have all the answers, but if the ANA and other key coin/bill associations banded together and created some kind of...
I'm talking about enforcing standards. If the TPGs worked with the ANA and other groups, they could make this happen. Do that and use 4K image...
Great post....I am partial to looking at the AU58's for those coins and for others, esp. if I can't afford something MS65/64 or higher. It's...
I'd love to get a CAC sticker on some coins, and if it means dropping down a grade and still finding a coin I like and agree with the grade, I'm...
