Good to know. I hadn't heard this before Michael, do you know if it happened recently, or about when ? Not for no fee to my knowledge. They...
I wouldn't say it makes Gem, TPGs would probably say 64. Struck with very worn out dies and likely dipped recently. But for $36 you did OK.
Boy I just don't know Matt - you got me talkin to myself over these :rolling: They all have issues that make me suspicious.
I can't remember his name anymore, Chris (CaveTroll) knows his name I think. But he has been considered the best since he was 18. That's why I...

53 to 55 would be my guess.
In the old days mint tolerance was about 1% either way, light or heavy. So you could have a 2% difference in two MS coins and neither one would be...
Hmmmm - apparently you guys do pay attention :D
Because they make a profit by doing it.
rotfl !!!
Keep looking for excuses Paul - who knows, you might actually find one. To me it's easier, and more accurate, to say they screwed up. By the...
No, just smart. And lucky ;)
Precisely so, as evidenced by the comments of Don Willis - PCGS Secure Plus does not lock in the grade of your coin forever. What is does is...
Separate names with a comma.
