Very true. I agree. And if the coin owner doesn't agree with the grade then the coin owner has every right to crack it out of the slab. If a buyer...
In this case the OP doesn't see anything wrong with the coin. Since it is possible that the TPG made an error, I don't see anything wrong with...
Because if the grade is favorable it increases the value which in turn makes more profit. It is a risk the coin owner takes by sending it for...
Again well said.
Well said.
Awesome!
I don't have a problem with someone doing that. If they got it cheaper elsewhere, then shame on me for not finding it cheaper elsewhere. What I...
Hello Chris. I think you missed the point I am trying to make. I know I cannot do a better job than TPG graders. I only believe that coin...
Don't waste your money on getting coins graded. UNLESS... you can't tell it's a counterfeit or not. Or you're turning the coin for a profit and...
Unless tracking is seriously delayed, I would say he probably sold you something he didn't have in his possession. He had to wait for it arrive to...

Hello bugo! Nice finds! That's funny that you found a 1959 cent today cause I did too! Mine was minted in Philadelphia however. I found it at the...
This is exactly why I believe grading is a sham and a racket. You can submit two identical coins and they will get a different grade more than 50%...
This supports my point in the thread I started: "Are NGC Slabs Ugly?" (link below) http://www.cointalk.com/threads/are-ngc-slabs-ugly.241020/
I think the Air-Tites (AT) are more effective against the elements when stored in the tube. I have a couple of these. The capped tube seems to do...
I saw how those coins you cleaned came out. I thought they looked better. They looked really nasty before the cleaning. My take on cleaning is...
Now the obverse compared to MS62. Not even close. *The photograde example is between 1917 Type 1 and Type 2. So their will be differences in the...
Look at reverse comparison with MS62... [ATTACH]
Front has a lot of worn areas, marks and nicks. I say the front appears to be XF40. The coin's reverse is in better condition. Going mostly off...
