This thread got me thinking - I simply do not remember the last time I used First Class Mail. Everything I sell goes Priority, and it's been 20...
Nicely put. The act of selling coins in basement slabs like this is construed by most knowledgeable numismatists as a deliberate deception on...
Excellent. I expect that money to (with a little luck) put me into a righteous PCGS AU55 - which is what I give this coin, technically - and...
They slabbed a nail.
I've no doubt about the coin's authenticity. The only "impossible" part of it is the chance of it happening without deliberate intervention on the...
No possible argument against. That's, like, less than an hour in a bar on Friday night. :D
More than that. I'm so sorry, I couldn't help myself. :) If I were interested in bulk Wheats (assuming something like Markus1959's idea), I'd...
Truer words never spoken. In order for it to be an incuse feature on a coin, it has to be a positive feature on the die, and there's no way of...
No, neither of us buys the coin. I stop at one grade because that's as hard a black mark as I will bestow for pure eye appeal. You can't deny...
I'll start a thread later today. Should be fun. :) Honestly, at this point I wish someone would just put up a solid factual argument for PMD on...
Maybe a little bit of juice there, but I gotta re-emphasize the ridiculous Populations we're talking about. There are 150,000 of these in MS64...
By the same token, that knowledge qualifies you to shop online with greater confidence than a less-experienced collector. :)
This is the place to make the transition from concentrating on the detail, to looking first at the whole picture and then contemplating where that...
Another way of looking at it is maybe NGC is waiting to see PCGS' play, and reacting to counter whatever it rather than move proactively. Don't...
That's kind of my point; any verbiage which doesn't follow strict legal precedent is subject to interpretation in court and you can't afford to...
As usual, there's not a crack in your reasoning. I believe the real world is a bit less authoritative than Lehigh96, and would irrationally(?,...
I have had all I am going to take of your condescending attitude. As far as I'm concerned, you are a troll whose agenda is to disrupt the smooth...
I'm not necessarily standing against you here; it's just difficult to believe that an operation so large would jeopardize their business over such...
OK. You seem pretty secure in your opinion; it's obviously thought through. Legit question - how does your thinking treat, say, a decent...
It's easy to see how True View "juices" images. The color is there, you only need to adjust the lighting a little bit to bring it out, and if you...
