Can you cite an example ?
What about DONWGRADES ? Anybody ever submit a coin and get a lower grade ?
The problem is that few here are experienced enough to grade coins. This message board and others like it are among the Top 1% of 1% of the...
Why is that thread going to disappear ?
Awesome info, JPC......at this point in time, I want to buy a very-high rated common over a 63 somewhat-more scarce coin.
Yup, I meant GRADE, just used another word.
Well, I know pretty much what the range is from Ebay and/or Heritage...I guess I'm more interested in knowing what you guys think is a GREAT...
