To the OP: The biggest change I've seen in the TPG's is how they are demanding a certain "look" to their slabbed coins. If any coin falls outside...
The luster thing has always bugged me! Nonetheless, we all know that luster dominates the TPG grade when you get to the gem level. I guess I'm a...
I would widen that range to 10%-90%. I've seen quite a few NGC/PCGS body baggers at my local dealer that I'd gladly pay 90% of CDN for......then...
