That is not an exaggeration, it is a bold faced lie. If you were right there would not be any AU58 coins in existence, or at least any graded...
So which old timer is right. Given the fact that most older collectors complain incessantly about coins that used to be graded AU and now reside...
I know you are a member of both forums, but no, you reputation is not the same as it is here. I pay attention and have a good memory as well.
Well, yeah, it should mean that. Otherwise, you are just blowing smoke again. You are the only person I know who expects to make a claim and not...
If you were paying attention to the population reports then you should be able to provide us with the statistics that support your claim.
If the high point wear occurred from one coin touching another, that is not circulation. Perhaps instead of arguing that any coin that has wear...
I will concede that they sold out completely with regards to moderns. But then again, see how easy it is to notice a blantant change in...
So anyone who disagrees with you is guilty of not having an open mind! Please, you are the most rigid thinking person any coin forum in the...
If it is that common, then post an example of an obvious circulated coin that is in a mint state holder. Or at least, post an excerpt from the...
That is a very cowardly way out IMO. If there are examples of gradeflation posted on this forum every day, then link some. If there is a marked...
That is a complete overreaction to the TPG practice of slabbing coins with very minor high point wear as mint state coins. The fact is that wear...
If I understand your post correctly, you are saying that the changing of standards for key dates and other high value coins started in the 90's...
How can you call me biased? You didn't quote a magazine, you just made a blanket statement with no backup. If you are going to blow smoke, then...
I got my white whale, a 1950-D Jefferson NGC MS67 5FS.
I use the Heritage collection software as well.
I won both of the coins I bid on and the total price was $1K below my max bids.
So Greg, what did you end up buying with your E-Bay Bucks?
Mike, I didn't mean a grade of 7, I meant an NGC generation 7 slab. I trust that Doug will know the timeframe that NGC used those slabs. It is...
Doug, Since you joined this forum in Nov 2002, I will assume that this alleged change in TPG grading standards happened sometime during the last...
What if I told you that the coin is in an NGC 7 Slab?
