My point that everyone in the numismatic community accepts that a straight graded coin is in a "problem free holder." The fact that many of those...
Don't look now, but you are proving my point.
AGREED, If this coin were photographed by jtlee and then reposted for a valuation, I bet everyone would be in the $500-$1000 range.
My initial thought was $500, then I saw the ANACS slab and thought it would need to crossover to NGC or PCGS to go that high. If it crosses to...
I might go to the Allentown/Bethlehem show.
That's fine if you personally wouldn't pay a premium for it, but to pretend that nobody would pay a premium and define it's market value on what...
C'mon man, that is a hot take to say that a rainbow toned ASE is going to sell for $30 and completely unrealistic. I bought 6 of these still in...
+1 That was my first thought.
I hear ya, but the guy who posted the thread has posted other “watchdog” threads. And I’m not even saying he’s wrong, but if he’s gonna make an...
The toning correspondence on the dime does not match which is a huge indicator of AT. The obverse displays a color pattern that is unusual in...
I'm not judging him based on his post count. What I am saying is that you can't elevate him to expert status when he only has 150 posts. Before...
These coins are displaying/mimicking target toning that is caused by an album. You need the reverse photos to see if the toning correspondence is...
There is absolutely no confirmation that these coins were actually submitted to CAC or that John Albanese has ever seen them. If he would make a...
How silly of me, to expect that an expert do more than show off his deep pockets on instagram. And he has several coins in that collection that...
Good enough to make my own judgements about toning. I’ve bought and sold hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of rainbow toned coins in my...
Personally, I love Alan Lastufka's Symphony Set on the NGC Registry. The Symphony Set (Lastufka Collection) I also like the guy who collects...
Neither of those two coins looks AT to me other than the oversaturation of the photos. This JoeBB21 guy is an alarmist who is making a claim...
Actually, you're last sentence is where the fundamental divergence starts. I accept the fact that the industry has adopted "problem free holder"...
So you admit to trolling me since that point. Nice!
Omg, I don’t know what is more laughable, that you claim to not be trolling or you claim that I’m spreading propaganda. Ready to give the name yet?
