That is a tough issue, because there are a few series where there is definitely a difference in grading standards between NGC and PCGS. Anyone...
Trade Dollars come immediately to my mind for authentication.
I rather like the combination of both photos together. Heritage does this for there high end coins whether proof or mint state. The close up...

How about on a brilliant proof rather than an Ultra Cameo. This is a 1955 Washington Quarter NGC PF68 with gorgeous toning. The first method...
It depends. If you look at straight on from any distance, it looks like photo number 2. If you look at it close up under a light source and turn...
I am not making predictions other than it will be entertaining.
Well, I know one thing. I will have a front row seat for this one. Ding Ding. Let round 1 begin. LOL
I would like to know which style of proof coin photography that most collectors prefer. The first method is to blast the coin with light and get...
Ruben, It is posts like this that cause members to, let's see, post a copy of their degree. What are you going to do if Larry tells you that he...

I just received a complete set of BU Jefferson War Nickels in the mail today. The seller listed the item as a complete set of gem BU war nickels...
With all due respect to Doug, he uses more stringent grading standards than all of them NGC, PCGS, and the CAC. IMO, coins 1, 2, and 4 are no...
I am not sure what that has to do with this poll since every coin shown was an 1883-CC. If the CC theory is true, all it does is explain why some...
Nah, when I get around to it, I will buy another 1999 Silver Proof Set. It is just that these moderns coins are not my top priority right now. I...
