I saw a fellow at the MSNS show who had all kinds of modern coins, all ridiculously artificially toned (in my opinion), and all in PCGS holders. I...
I didn't say hi to Budgood; for some reason I didn't know he'd be there. If I go back tomorrow I'll stop by. The only TPG I saw there was DGS...
Hi, all. I wanted to give a brief summary of the 2008 Michigan State Numismatic Society fall show. The venue is the Hyatt Regency Hotel in...
