Try selling your coins, and you will quickly become a fan of TPG grading. Most people will not pay full value for a raw coin. It doesn't matter...
MS66 PL, although the obverse looks much better than the reverse for the designation.
I just sent my second submission of the year to NGC for grading and was wondering how many coins our other Cointalk members have submitted for...
Blast white indicating a dipping and very baggy for a dime, the obverse luster looks great but the reverse looks terrible. I can't tell if the...
EOR Morgans with green usually fetch tidy sums, I'm going big $1100

Blatant AT
It’s easy to criticize grading standards when you don’t buy or sell coins.

From those photos, it looks like a die chip, but I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this thread. Typically threads like this are a complete...
It looks MS65 minimum from the luster and surfaces shown in the photo. We would need better photos that show the surfaces better in order to go...
I really want to say MS68 on this coin but I think it has just enough imperfections to limit it to high end MS67. I say MS67 CAC
AU55 and beautiful. One of the very first rainbow toned coins I ever purchased was an NGC MS66 Pilgrim on a rainbow sea.
