Well, as they say, life is full of trade-offs. And yeah, believe me, I really do understand your point of view. But ask yourself this question....
And yes that means the thread is back open !
Yes, ANACS is good for variety attribution. But when it comes to grading, not so much. Make sure you keep that in mind if you consider buying...
Both of those are bad, but there is another as well. The mylar flips, or any of the non PVC flips, are made of much harder plastic and they have...
Sorry guys, but the forum rules prohibit contest of this nature. The thread is closed. edit- The parts that caused a problem with the rules have...

The 4 major TPGs all have guarantees, but those guarantees are not all the same. You would do best to read them for yourself....
Granted, but even based on your pics I would sure advise against dipping that coin. As it is, I thought I saw signs of it in the original pics,...
Just so ya know Krd, the General Discussion section is for non coin related subjects. That's why I moved your post here.
