I don't know of anyone who can identify an SMS coin from a photgraph unless it is cameo. And the only reason that works is because ONLY the SMS...
OK, but there are 3 others listed as being in London. Do they all say they won't do it ?
No idea. But apparently they did say "approved check". Can't say as I blame them for that. I'd be leary of accepting a personal check from someone...

Yup. Again agree. Don't agree that it should be that way though. Yeah but they shouldn't. NGC uses the exact same equipment. But people...
It looks like album toning to me. But that big gouge in the forehead should keep it from being slabbed. Pretty coin though.
There is one thing that does bother me about some of the coins that CAC does sticker. You know how the TPG will bump coins up a grade because of...
