All that's left is this one. :D Here's the 1879 Stella PF67 Cameo in the Tyrant collection on display for the first time in 2021. It exists...
Nice! I love CBHs. A 1820/19 was the first coin I ever purchased as an adult. It's scratched but I just sent it in for grading with some others...
Ah, what's one more? (I'm off today.) This was a good one. Was at a show long time ago around when I first started collecting. This was in an...
[ATTACH] Here's my two cent I was telling you about if you'd like to compare it to yours. I got this on ebay probably around 2010 or so....
[ATTACH] Here's a half dime I took a chance on. Not an overly expensive coin. It came back AU-58. I loved the look of it. [ATTACH] This...
Submitting is work and it's expensive. I've done it many times. From filling out the online forms, making sure you didn't miss any boxes,...
My first guess would be MS-62 because it looks like luster left. If it is whizzed there's not enough light on the surfaces to be able to see it.

LOL!:D That's great!

I can't speak for them but this seems like it could be a major issue. It's all about $$. If you're just sending stuff in for a re-holder to...
Look up PCGS photograde. It's a pretty helpful tool to get you in the ballpark. You can either hold the coin up next to the picture or a picture...
Excellent post! Very interesting. I put together a 1963 proof set in a Capitol plastics holder a long time ago. Just thought it was neat being...
I’ll be interested to see what they come back as. I sent the best one in out of my set thinking it was MS and it came back whizzed. Almost...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I always hate getting these in change. You cash in change and they give them back to you. You can’t get rid of them. Well...
There’s already numerous long threads on this if you do a search.
Ok, long post, be warned! I can't speak for PCGS because I don't know either way but if you send a coin to NGC now, they do photograph both...
