What would be your course of action in the following case? There is a coin on eBay for $70 or best offer. I make a $60 offer and it is declined...
Per PCGS: "Environmental damage includes such problems as corrosion, excessively dark toning and verdigris. Most of these problems arise from...
I'm glad you like it! Welcome to the Kazakhstan collectors society! :D
That's odd. I had not heard about them increasing prices as stock decreased. I know Apmex does that but haven't seen any mints do it.
A great assortment! I'm a fan of the Gold Sesquicentennial! The Perth Mint was always quick for me as well but I haven't ordered anything from...
Those will fit in the album but will rattle a bit (I've run into that with a few that are too small).
I voted MS 65 before the reveal. The cheek hit and the marks in the fields would keep a blast white coin at a 63/64 level but the color will...

That looks like quite the score! I'm guessing you got it for slightly above retail at $125 and will get at least $1,500 for it (and quite possibly...
I've seen a few of these before (darker photo and darkish/crusty toning) that have been 64s or 65s so I went 65 here as well. I'm not the biggest...
I've used three: NGC, PCGS, and Anacs. Anacs is great when you use their $10-$12 specials on coins that otherwise wouldn't make sense to spend...
Like @baseball21 mentioned, GC will let you send to PCGS, NGC, or Anacs. Outside of market values, the fact that they are close in location to...
Option 2 would not involve a Dansco as that would be challenging (those coins will either be certified or raw in original packaging/capsules). And...
Let's say 2010 to make the Bruins fans less salty. :p
