Gold sometimes develops verdigris, and yes they will slab coins with verdigris on them. But when they do, there is never very much of it, just a...
To a large degree, yes.
I completely agree with you. But in 180's defense the "idea" behind what he said is quite correct. He merely used two wrong numbers to illustrate...
Because I think it's PVC residue. And the TPGs will not slab a coin that has PVC residue on it. Or at least they sure didn't use to. Today,...
