Uh, I must have misunderstood the intent of your post as I did not take it as an agreement of my position on the issue. To me, it looked like an...
Doug, I already addressed this in one of my previous threads. As long as the poster believes the coin is good for the grade, they have followed...
I have never been a fan of lowball registry sets but I have to say that coin is as cool as the other side of the pillow. It never occurred to me...
My advice is to start selling your collection. I thought collecting coins was fun, and it is but I can't describe how much fun it is to hear the...
Nice try, but I purchase all of my coins sight unseen. If CAC Dreck coins exist, chances are that I will end up with one sooner or later given my...
There seem to be a lot of members of this forum who believe that the CAC has essentially no value and its only purpose is to artificially inflate...

What cracks me up is that many of the same people who bash the CAC also whine about gradeflation and a loosening of standards by the TPG's.
Once you see an MS67 or MS68 Morgan Dollar in hand, it becomes really hard not to like them. I think people are drawn to the series because they...
Now I know I have explained to you in the past why toning is not a fad, yet you continue to present the fall of the toned coin market as...
Of course I don't think I am the only one. I was using hyperbole to prove a point. FWIW, I haven't seen Feld or Shane post here in a long time...
LOL, why didn't you show those photos to begin with. It looks much more attractive in the second group of pics. I actually like it now.
So you are waiting for pretty to go out of style. I hope you have an abundance of patience and a long life line.
Now ya see, I don't want a coin that might turn me to stone if I gaze at it for too long.
