So why do they feel compelled to make a coin that is almost an exact replica of a currently available US coin? The "American Buffalo Gold tribute"...
Could you give me an example of one of these great products?
Ripley, Why don't you send the coin in for a grade review? If the coin no longer meets the MS-69 criteria, then you will be compensated by PCGS...
The problem with sending the coin with the crackout form is that they will crack the coin out in order to grade it. This means that if your coin...
You guys are making me start to seriously want some of these Newfy coins. I love the clean and simple designs like the older Canadian coinage was,...

it is also true that a rare raw coin is more valuable than a graded common coin as well. The slab does nothing for the value. One should also...
agreed, but the finish is the same as the bullion no matter what the Mint called them. You can't tell the difference except for the mint mark.
Unfortunately not true. in 2006-2008 the Mint offered Uncirculated finish SAEs with a W mint mark in addition to the bullion versions without a...
Doug, you eloquently make your points as always. Yes, I think you're weird, but that has nothing to do with this discussion. ;) While I...
Ripley, I have to ask you about that coin you pictured. The slab says 2007 -W without the W mintmark. That is worded like it's an error coin...
Separate names with a comma.
