Oh, I wanna see those, they are right up my alley.
Ok, so this Buffalo resides in a PCGS MS66 OGH and has absolutely booming luster, better than most MS67s I've seen for this date/mm. [IMG] So...
Ok, so this coin is a trick. The grade is MS67 but it resides in an NGC Old Fatty holder which predates the 5FS designation. [IMG] So the...
It is a 100+ year old gold coin with definite numismatic value and significant spreads between grades, what is your hesitation?
Please guess the grade of the 1943-S Jefferson Nickel shown below by voting in the attached poll. Please make your grade determination and cast...
Please guess the grade of the 1938-D Buffalo Nickel shown below by voting in the attached poll. Please make your grade determination and cast...
There seems to be much angst on this forum towards the TPGs and for the life of me I will never understand it. Ten years ago, I was a collector...
The problem is that it isn’t uncommon for a PCGS Truview to turn an MS64 into an MS66. I would love to say this coin is undergraded but I won’t...

I just sent my second submission of the year to NGC for grading and was wondering how many coins our other Cointalk members have submitted for...
Blast white indicating a dipping and very baggy for a dime, the obverse luster looks great but the reverse looks terrible. I can't tell if the...
EOR Morgans with green usually fetch tidy sums, I'm going big $1100
The problem is that the coin isn’t graded. My feeling on coins like this is that because they are raw, potential buyers will wonder why, assume...
Nice luster but too many hits for a gem grade. I think this coin is a solid MS64.
Ok guys, this AT crap has had like 3 days, can we please put this thing out of its misery already?
Not saying there isn't, but the TPGs don't care about strike unless it is below average with Jefferson Nickels. Look at how many MS67s aren't...
While that is true, if I collected a series that was more dependent upon strike, like Buffalo Nickels, I would be more strike conscious.
The photo is over exposed but considering it’s not hiding some wear, it looks very clean, well struck, and the luster & originality look good as...
