Now you're confusing me. Are you suggesting that we should include coins that have flaws or are less than perfect? If you are trying to find grade...
I assume by "survivor bias" you mean for bulk submissions where some coins are returned ungraded. Is that correct? Chris
Just because it wasn't a woman........... Chris:wacky::wacky:
One option available to you would be to check the census figures from NGC and PCGS. I'm not sure about ANACS and/or ICG. Chris

If I were subjected to an inconsiderate dealer like that, I'd tell him to leave my table and don't come back until he (I've never seen a woman do...
Let's see? I have 18,000 Westward Journey nickels. Maybe I should submit all of them and request that the name, Bidiot Hoard, be included on the...
It was probably the fault of the previous owner. I realize that it can happen every once in a while, but I've had many, many coins graded, and...
