Major auctions may only be attended by those willing to spend travel expenses, but they are participated in by thousands of others. Many have a...
That depends on who you ask. NGC requires all 3 lines be clear and unbroken. But PCGS only requires the center band be clear and unbroken....
A lot of dealers take checks, from a lot of people. And a lot of other dealers won't take checks, from a lot of people. You want to know if a...
Yeah, sometimes that true. But it's also sometimes true that it is an honest dealer giving an accurate description for a common coin. Well,...
