Yes, free NGC submitter account. I sent an email to NGC with my ANA number, and they did the rest. I like the magazine alot. I like being...
Pretty coin. But saying "at best" seems a bit harsh. I would say the Obverse is a solid 63, no way it dropping into MS60-62 territory from what...

I think what you are implying is that one of CAC's goals is to rein in market grading and make sure the coin is solid for the grade, regardless of...
Perhaps, but I don't place any value on my own skills as a grader, so I can't say which of my coins is "market graded" and which have "technical...
I don't have any stories of my own, but I certainly will enjoy this thread and the resulting podcast!
