With that scratch on the neck there's a good chance the coin would not be graded at all.
I wear glasses too, and I don't have to take mine off to use a loupe. I just move the coin closer or further away until it focuses. No problem at...
That used to be the case, but it is no longer. There are several examples where PCGS has assigned the 70 grade more often than NGC. What you have...
Nope, NGC has put many a coin worked on by NCS in Detail slabs, and body-bags before Detail slabs existed.
You pretty much proved my point Rusty. They state flat out that they grade by the lower side. And yet you think it logical that they would reverse...
prince, apparently you need to pay more attention to the population numbers. There are more than a few examples where the number of coins assigned...
The coin looks AU to me, but I'm curious to see what they said. Sure wouldn't surprise me if they said 63.
I'm gonna guess they called it 66. I'm kind of torn on the FBL though. PCGS is often lenient with FBL, but I'm guessing on this one they did not...
I'm not sure you are understanding what an altered coin is. You are talking about toning, and toning has nothing to do with a coin being an...
Yes, the obverse is more important, but that is not the same thing as grading by the worst side, it is completely different. Example, if the obv...
So Michael, please tell me - when is the new book going to come out ? Any idea at all yet ?
No it's not a paradox at all, it's quite simple. And it is spelled out precisely where the prices come from on the Grey Sheet itself, all you have...
They do have their inventory automated. But that doesn't solve the problem. What is needed, and needed not just for Heritage but for all dealers...
Problem is Rusty, all the luster in the world doesn't make that scratch, the hit in front of his nose, all of the hits on the lapel, and all of...
Actually the first green label slabs were the 4th generation of PCGS slabs. And the green label was used up until Nov. of 1998 - over 12 years,...
But that's not what happens. All of the TPGs - NGC, PCGS, ANACS, ICG - all of them have their own unique set of grading standards. The actual...
No worries, that's been dealt with ;) Thanks for responding.
Not everybody has bar code readers. Dealers put stickers and labels on coins so when somebody ask about the coin they can pick it up, look at...
OK, I'd still like you to answer my questions, which is why I contacted you privately.
OK, I sent you a PM. Care to answer it ? And by the way, who exactly is this "we" that would like to speak to us ?
