Nothing ? Even if you never buy a coin at a coin show you should always come away with something. What ? A bit more knowledge than you had when...
The simple answer, (another way of saying what Frank did) the coin bounces and hits the dies during the striking process.
Good for you, just make sure you keep copies of everything so you can refer back to it in years to come. Nobody can remember everything.
And in a few years you'll be able to buy them for spot.
Because of the scratches on the cheek. One is easy to see, the other a bit more difficult but it's there.
Couple potential problems Vic. 1 - you are assuming that the 2 coins are equal just because the plastic says so. 2 - you are making a comparison...
Yup, as long as you follow the rules, you can say anything you want. It wasn't a rant, and I definitely don't have any agenda, nor am I sticking...
Border line problem coin IMO, could go either way.
Let me ask a question here. Is every person out there a crook or somebody looking to take advantage of you ? There's only one possible answer -...

Ehhh, not necessarily. PCGS has slabbed many coins that have scratches on them. The difference is, NGC thought the scratch was severe enough to...
I think pretty much everybody here knows that I believe the TPGs have more than a few problems. But even with their problems they still serve a...
He pretty much said already, because NGC saw it in hand and he hasn't. And based on your pics, I can't see much of anything.
While that single example may illustrate your point, it in no way proves your point. You even comment on that yourself in that same thread where...
Hang ups ? If your comment means that you and think very, very, differently about many things, with that I would agree 100%. And yes, I have...
Even when you like the look of the lower graded coin better than the higher graded coin ? Really ? edit - I'm assuming, that when you say 5...
