I'm always surprised by those threads but there are plenty of people that assert it (maybe they only mean it for eBay/forum purchases and make...
I've been there too. Sometimes I reflect after the auction and am glad I was the runner-up as the coin wasn't really for me (so I get why a...
Those are all good points. There is obviously a balance needed and GC is trying to walk that line (although their return policy is likely too...
MS 62 ....I don't see wear and the longer cheek hit would likely prevent anything higher at that time
It was my telepathic message to him saying the coin wasn't worth it. :p Edit: I will neither confirm or deny the above is true but I will say...

What would you consider the 2011 25th Anniversary 5 coin Silver Eagle set? Those coins were known to arrive already toned (if the capsules weren't...
"Mint stuck" and "Mint state" are different terms and that is where the source of disagreement lies. I don't believe mint struck has ever been the...
It's certainly possible. Some would like to see more green and a little less breaks in the toning (the area below "UNUM" could end up hurting the...
Here is a video: https://www.instagram.com/p/CPYjqCbFDcW/ I don't see the luster impaired by the toning. I reiterate, it's debatable what level...
