The small spots are what made me vote no sticker. The coin appears to be a true MS 68 but CAC tends to be tough on Ikes from what I have seen/read.
Dansco albums of all sorts have been difficult to find over the years. The company has had issues meeting demand for a while now. They also moved...
I gave you the first yes vote (in part due to me being wrong on the previous two and possibly wanting to continue my streak of being wrong :p).
And congrats again! This one was more split but still leaned towards no from more of us (including me). Nice work!
Congrats! The majority, including me, were wrong on this one. I'm happy it went in your favor!
That's a nice custom set-no set rules just what you like is the perfect way to go!
@geekpryde reorganizing is part of the process and I think many of us have been there. I am a fan of the 1998 matte proof Kennedy. You can argue...

According to a post from @Conder101 they have been around since 2009. This is a basement slab like @Lon Chaney mentioned (although one can argue...
It is not unusual. Mint error grading costs at least $35 (up to $300 guide value) and $70 (above $300 to $10k) per coin while economy is $23 (up...
I think it's a nice coin but there are some things that are of concern to me (that made me vote "no" to a sticker). 1) It is a bit crusty but not...
This was a good report from the PCGS forum: https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1107214/abbys-gacc-september-2024-show-report
Most of the better shows have entrance fees (ANA, Central States, etc). It is a bit annoying but for the amount of dealers there, the $10-$15...
