1956-P: After 1955, the mint redeemed themselves by producing outstanding nickels in 1956. This one is a blazing monster with luster to match...
I gotta tell ya, I am really surprised that PCGS didn't give this coin FS. They usually allow one little disturbance like that and they don't...
While you have a point about his past complaints about TPG over grading, you can't possibly think this coin is an MS62. Personally, from the...
Wait, what? People are seriously calling luster grazes wear? That ain't right, I will check out the thread you are talking about.

So seriously, I hate 1955 and consider it by far the worst date for the entire Jefferson series. In essence, all the Jefferson Nickels from 1955...
I don't play black jack, just poker.
In fact, that is what this is all about. If you don't have the same grading skill as the graders at the TPGs, then you don't have the requisite...
My comment isn't condescending at all, it is factual. Several other members espoused the exact same sentiments that I did, and one even told you...
What are you, the coin police? Of course you don't intervene. Caveat Emptor! I would like to know why a complete stranger asked you what your...
The TPGs never used technical grading, they always used market grading. You expect us to believe that you are an expert grader but seem not to...
You don't have the requisite knowledge to follow that silly mantra. I have no idea what your specialty is, but for you to pretend that your...
