I think conservation would probably help this. It just sucks that it's in a rattler holder. So it all depends on what your end goal is. Are you...
I'm not asking the TPG's to do this. But with this being a forum, I find it a very useful tool not only to the OP but other members who may be...
Thank you, I'm working at it. It's much easier to learn with these lower value coins. I hope to someday work my way up to more expensive coins....
That's exactly what I meant about them being real crooks.
I would think that a lot of the big time submitters know exactly how to "Load" a submission in order to get a few to go the way they want them to....
Those offers by the "Expert" dealers show just how unsure they are of themselves at grading a coin. To them they are just throwing the dice, that...
That is a hands down stunning Indian Cent. I would agree it is worth every bit of the assigned grade and a bean as well. Those types of coins...
I would agree with you 100% on this. Their business model would almost have to fluctuate. If their standards were to continuously loosen, then...

I started this thread regarding a Washington Quarter. A question was raised about posting a Washington Quarter that had similarities to the...
Strike: 65 (It's pretty good for an O mint) Luster: 66 Eye Appeal: 65 Surface Condition: 65PL obverse 66PL reverse Net to 65PL Overall grade: 65PL
Ok, @physics-fan3.14 has started a good trend. I give credit to @Lehigh96 for the original suggestion of the multi-part grading. I will try to...
I know everyone probably get's tired of this one. But it was and probably will remain my biggest cherrypick of all time. [ATTACH]
Here's one of my more recent ones.. 1910-S Lincoln Cent PCGS MS-63BN Unattributed S/S RPM FS-502. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
And now you know, the rest of the story..... [IMG]
I agree with you on this one. The strike is great, the dies were not. I can't VAM it because of the state the dies were in. I could not make...
You guys really nailed this one... I had 3 to choose from, all in NGC holders and this one was by far the nicest of the bunch. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
