Halos around the devices could have a number of different causes, there is no single reason. These coins are clearly not circulated, so we can...
No, they definitely would not. You would have to resubmit it and accept whatever grade they give you.
Good guesses, everyone. This is graded as 64 RB, and I think that is the correct grade. If it didn't have those unfortunate hits at the top of...
This is a very easy fake to spot. Took me 10 seconds, and I found a whole list of other problems than you listed. Definitely fake.
Go to the Newman Numismatic Portal and read through the books and magazines there. They have thousands of items up for free reading. That should...
For me, it really depends on if the higher grade or the lower grade is the correct grade. (edited to clarify - there is no correct grade, of...
It's funny how, every few years, this thread gets some action. This was originally posted almost 10 years ago. It is absolutely crazy for me to...

I'm really not sure how many of you participate in the NGC Registry. I enjoy building sets there. I'm also not sure if you guys have seen the...
I was trolling Ebay, as I often do, and I came upon this tiny little coin. Ebay was also having one of their Christmas bargains, so I bought it....
10% Ebay bucks today. Get 'em while they're hot.
Ha! That is a scam they sell you, but it is not actually true (at least, not at my post office!) I go to pick up a so-called Registered package...
Oh, didn't even look at the date of the post. You linked this in another thread and I just responded as you asked.
Eh, I've never really been hoodwinked by gold. I've got a couple of gold coins (actual coins, not bullion NCLT), but I prefer silver myself.
Yes, but if you look a little bit more.... 1983P has *significantly* more coins graded than any other date surrounding it. It has *significantly*...
