Some of them, not all. Some of the coins sold in the GSA sales really are circulated. For that matter some of the coins in the Uncirculated...
Post mint damage.
There's always plenty of them for sale if that's what you mean. But there are typically fewer buyers than there are sellers. I guess that...
It's not strange at all, rather it is expected. To start with every coin is unique, so it is expected that they will not all react the same. Also...
I did, and it isn't. You can believe whatever ya want. But even reading a book as basic as the Red Book will tell you that toned coins are...
You don't understand what happened. Jello's coin was in an MS60 slab. Now that right there tells you that the coin has issues, not necessarily...
Can't say I disagree. But at PCGS, those complaints fall on deaf ears. PCGS is notorious for having the worst customer service of all the TPGs....
I think you put your Haha after the wrong sentence. But then it's time that you got to know some dealers, for you never will unless you start at...
Two reasons - first the obvious, the grade itself. When looking at a coin like that and the grade doesn't seem to fit - there's a reason. The coin...
Actually it is to make it softer, so it will strike up better. No, an improperly annealed planchet is one that captures the copper ions and...
The sooner you learn practice patience, the better off you will be. That said, there is no need to wait. What you need to do is to establish...
No, I did not state that you were an imbecile. I was asking an honest question. The difference between those 2 coins is obvious to me, but it is...
Because it's really an an AU58 ;)
Unfortunately the moving company has not yet arrived with library, so I cannot quote you written references. However, the coins speak for...
Yes, I think PCGS would grade that coin.
That's kind of like saying this thing would blue, if only it wasn't yellow. And they don't - think that way. There are many collectors who know...
But the designation on the slab does not define the different types of coins. It doesn't even define them for the TPGs. And I don't deny that they...
It's not a question of getting it right. It's a question of definitions, and which definitions a person (or the TPGs) choose to use. Example -...
And you can't see the difference between those 2 coins ? The NGC coin is a Proof, the PCGS coin is a Specimen. And Specimen and Proof are not...
It's a Specimen, which is why PCGS called it a Specimen. A Specimen and a Proof are two different things.
