Sorry, but even back when Kasia posted that I could easily see the issues in the first pictures - her before pictures. I'm amazed that others...
That is correct. If the coin is not in original packaging then the best you can do is guess. There have been several instances where NGC said one...
No, I have never heard of a "known" case - key word being known. Does that mean it's impossible that it could happen ? No, of course not. But in...
If by scans you mean a picture, what good would that do ? None. Why ? Because even though you take a picture of a coin and it shows some marks or...
Have you ever heard the adage - consider the source ? Do you know how those words got to be an adage ? Well, it applies to what you are saying...

No Richie I'm not hinting at that. I don't hint period, I just come right and say things if I have something to say. What I am talking about is...
If this is the coin you mean Bill, reasonably certain that the line in the fields at 6 o'clock is not a die crack but a die scratch. Or possibly a...
If NCS or PCGS tries to conserve a coin and after they have finished they can see that the dirt and grime or the ugly toning that they removed has...
No, you're definitely not the only one. Some folks think they are cool and that they add to the attraction of the coin. But a crack in a die is a...
Agreed.
Blown huh ? What would it be if you were to hear the thousands of others who think the same way say it ?
Sorry, but that just isn't rue at all. There are literally tens of millions of coins that have been properly cleaned by individuals and then...
No, you misunderstand. There are two things - cleaning, and harsh cleaning - and they are very different things. The problem is that when most...
