So you are the one that outbid me on that Jefferson. I have an MS65 and MS67 and was trying to get an MS66 to complete. Congratulations on a...
VP stands for Variety Plus which is a service that NGC uses for the varieties they recognize during the grading process. For more information,...
Doug, If you really want more examples I can post them for you. The reason I posted this one is because it is one that I own. I was purchasing...
I wish I could add something useful to this thread, but I have never seen a Jefferson Nickel in an SEGS holder, so I really can't. However, I...
Fair enough, but I would find it very difficult for the coin doctors to keep up with mother nature.
Mike, I think you missed my point. I don't advocate giving up the fight. Rather be smarter and more patient. Be like the narcotics officer who...
Mike, With all due respect, you are overreacting. To say that "the toned coin market is built upon a foundation of deception" is a complete...
I can't see the photo as you need to be logged in as a paying member of NGC, but I highly doubt the ability to tone only one side of a slabbed...

I think I found a coin that might qualify, but there is no photo. http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=336&Lot_No=4944
Doug, I recognize that toned coins were not always as desirable as they are now, but I think you time line is a little off. This is a link to...
Charmy, I did as much research on Lafayette Dollars as one can IMO. If you would like to read the thread I wrote about Lafayette Dollars before...
Charmy, I understand your point, but IMO most average collectors can't grade very well at all. It would be nice if everyone could learn how to...
Are they circulated, uncirculated?
You definitely got that right. I struggle with that every time I buy a coin.
I agree with Leadfoot on this one. Those looking for bargains will quickly find themselves in trouble. Coins that sell at bargain prices sell...
This is my leprechaun coin. [IMG] :whistle:
