I wasn't, I nailed it !!! :D I gave a secret code: MS65.....the MS stands for "Mint State" and you can't spell those words without the letter...
The problem is that the economy is changing SO MUCH and SO FAST that it pays to look at non-dividend payers and dividend growers. The reliance on...
Thanks...but in fairness, the recent 10-20 years dominance of growth over value stocks is very pronounced. I'm a Value guy but you can't argue...
Yes...we've talked about this in other threads.
Just curious....what does this coin cost approximately and where is the inflection point in the MS numbers where the price jumps a ton ?
They are 100% total BS. Some of the people who have paid up for some special coins like the 2009 UHR with a PL designation and 1st Strike have...
Sure, same thing with Saints...sometimes the Capitol is well-struck and other times it looks smeared and you can't see some of the columns. But a...
Beautiful coin.....MS65 ?
Agred, but I think some threads heree at CT have clearly shown some coins with grades from the TPGs that were WAY off. Not 1 but 2 or 3 or 5...
I've repeatedly said that the assembly-line rapidity where these guys are spending 5-15 seconds per coin is the reason they are making mistakes....

Differentiation = $$$$ That's why that infamous thread over at CU had such heated posts.
I was unaware that there was a PHYSICAL and LONGEVITY difference in the 2 slabe....I assumed plastic was plastic. Me personally, I don't mind the...
No, if NGC isn't engaged in gross overgrading then you are experiencing GOOD luck. :D
If more examples like this become commonplace, the premium has to fade -- no ? Another problem was that for 1 or 2 of the slabs that NGC used,...
I'm not against them, I just don't think that any ACTUAL market discrepancy from grading or any PERCEIVED discrepancy (as with ICG or ANACS)...
I just have the 7th....:D
It's VERY interesting to read this thread and the comments....I'm learning alot, but mostly I'm just surprised since PCGS slabs have held that...
Is it your contention -- and others reading this thread -- that NGC does not do this or at least as frequently ? I'm asking, not trying to make a...
It's interesting that Sheldon's scale was for large cents. If that was the case, I would think it would be useful for other large coins, like...
