I don't need advice about sharks or die cracks or dimes. The crux of the matter is that you just don't like admitting that you can be wrong about...
Did you change the lighting set-up for the second set of photos? Chris
Yeah, I hate moving, too! Chris:woot::woot::woot::woot:
First, you didn't say if you submitted the coin yourself or if you bought it that way. If you submitted it yourself, then it is a no-brainer. Send...
Things never change! In the mid-80's when I was a bartender on Ft. Myers Beach, we'd find foreign coins in bank rolls and the tip jars nearly...
You're no fun! Chris
It should get an MS DETAILS - ALTERED SURFACES. Chris

Jason, based on the pre-auction estimate and the hammer price, would you say that the difference between a Moroccan coin and a "Moron" coin is...

First, welcome to the neighborhood, Cathy! Like Rick said, you need to crop the coin removing all of the unnecessary background and then resize...
Unfortunately, too many people think that the USB scope is all they need. Personally, I think a regular camera is more important than a USB scope....
Quit using the "technically-smechnically" crap. You're confusing me! Chris:wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky::wacky:
Anyone who submits a million-dollar coin in any tier other than a walk-through is an idiot. Chris
Wrong! You pay for the return shipping and insurance. NGC has a space on the submission form for calculating the cost. (PCGS used to be the same...
Zackly! Whenever I've submitted coins, I have always set an insurance value based on what I think a coin will grade. If my estimate is right,...
