Here is the example I bid on, but didn't win. [IMG]
@Lehigh96 could you please clarify two more things: *Should the person posting the image give their opinion (you did while I didn't as I believe...
You’re correct that those aren’t ideal. I could see it being used as a hole-filler until you locate a nicer example with no spots.
Let’s see some pictures and maybe you can help gain new collectors. :) I have bid on a few Costa Rican coins, but didn’t win any of those. I have...
For those wondering, the ACG slab is most likely a one-of-a-kind and had some spirited bidding. It took at least one other slab “fanatic” to get...
I'm not sure what @GDJMSP 's final conclusion was, but if we call it NT, then QC still takes the round. I believe we have passed 24 hours. I'll...

I’m not defending PCGS at all (notice the quotes), and I’m not the one selling out my principles to defend PCGS (while a few posters we all know...
Wow someone sure is fiery. Apparently when you don’t like something you’re willing to “start something”? If all can’t be convinced let’s just move...
I’ve seen plenty with the same look in hand. Some I’ve also seen sold raw by eBay sellers who described the coins as heat toned and then they...
I haven’t personally experienced any proof sets turning (outside of the 2009 Lincoln Cents with the special copper composition and those looked...
The proofs like that from packaging came from questionable sources as well, including being gassed or left in extreme temps/humidity. Some have...
You don’t want to see what’s inside baseball’s basement. :p
I’d take them for free. :p At that price I’d crack them all and send in again to see what happens. :)
Questionable Might be heat induced; it doesn’t look like album toning or roll toning and I’m not sure what else would cause that color on a...
