1) I agree 2) I agree 3) I agree and have posted the reasons why in threads that you were an active member. Do you know the reasons why it...
Well so much for gradeflation. Here is a coin graded by NGC over a decade ago that all but a handfull of collectors thought would be at most an...
I don't own grading books that are that old!
Byron, The coin is AU58, there is some high point wear. And I don't consider roll friction an option for the Jefferson series. However, my...
If what Doug has been posting was crap, then your post was pure sewage!
So now you want us to check the old threads. Well thanks to Shane, we don't have to. Shane just resurrected this thread that started in 2003 on...
WOW! The three quoted above are my favorites. That Barber Half is just sick. I don't think most people understand how hard it is to find...

So which old timer is right. Given the fact that most older collectors complain incessantly about coins that used to be graded AU and now reside...
I know you are a member of both forums, but no, you reputation is not the same as it is here. I pay attention and have a good memory as well.
Well, yeah, it should mean that. Otherwise, you are just blowing smoke again. You are the only person I know who expects to make a claim and not...
If you were paying attention to the population reports then you should be able to provide us with the statistics that support your claim.
If the high point wear occurred from one coin touching another, that is not circulation. Perhaps instead of arguing that any coin that has wear...
I will concede that they sold out completely with regards to moderns. But then again, see how easy it is to notice a blantant change in...
So anyone who disagrees with you is guilty of not having an open mind! Please, you are the most rigid thinking person any coin forum in the...
If it is that common, then post an example of an obvious circulated coin that is in a mint state holder. Or at least, post an excerpt from the...
