$100 Personally I find the toning on this coin questionable but I’m sure somebody paid up for it.

It’s easy to criticize grading standards when you don’t buy or sell coins.

From those photos, it looks like a die chip, but I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this thread. Typically threads like this are a complete...

I don't know why they gave that coin a green sticker, it is plainly obvious that the coin was a much higher grade than MS65, and even the TPGs...
I wish more people thought this way. This is how gradeflation really happens. We see coins all the time that have attributes of 2 different...
