Thanks Steve, I've had these for a couple of years and am pretty sure the price of a Denari has gone up significantly since paying $30ish for this...
So all the major players in the grading game use Market Grading. The way I understand this is when the coin market fluctuates then the grades...
The bronze was in a lot of 10 uncleaned from an ebay seller with a handle like aaccoins and the silver one was (can't remember exactly) in the...
Here are a couple of Marcus Aurelius issues. The silver Denari was purchased from www.ancientcoins.ca and the bronze AE-2 I cleaned myself. The...
OOPS, I forgot to add. When I grade the tone/color of the coin has no bearing what-so-ever. It's not mentioned in any grade coin guide that I'm...
I don't know all of them, but the three I sent back to PCI a couple of years ago were returned back to me as undeliverable. Yep, the envelope was...
