The title says PR-69. I don't see that anywhere on the label. I don't think the coin got graded. Looks like a specialty slab. IMO if no grade...
The Baltimore Whitman Show is now only about 6 weeks away. I've been waiting for it. I haven't bought a coin since the Nov show mostly because I...
Thanks for the answer and the reference. I think their business in iAuction will start slowly and go downhill from there. Those charges are way...
