Nope! :D
Anybody feel like they're noticing inflation creeping into coin prices these days? I'm finding coins listed for 20% more to double price guide...
Yeah, IME sending anything in seems like a roll of the dice. I believe and am hopeful it will cross. You can think you have it figured out and...
If you want a real challenge, look through the draped bust half cents for sale online and pick out ones you think would straight grade at a TPG...
This is an interesting thread. I just purchased a coin in an ICG slab in hopes of cracking it out and crossing over to an NGC slab for the...
Thanks for the attribution. I'll add that in the comment under it on registry for my own sake.
We have a winner! Yes NGC gave it a 63BN. It’s a dark coin and hard to photograph. More light doesn’t seem to make it any brighter. I expected...
NGC registry is my display. Can look at high quality images on any computer any time I want. That’s enough for me. This plan sounds too...

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but as somebody that has played that game for the registry set I would have passed. There's a reason it's not...

Well, as a long time member, don't expect the website to be a Broadway show or to compete with video games for a YN. :D One benefit used to...

Looks good. I picked up one of these for my Morgan registry last year. This ones an NGC 64 with a CAC sticker. 21,695,000 minted. NGC has...
