Let me understand this. You are adult enough to stop the conversation with me because I disagree with you and you don't want to continue the...
I will give the coin an MS69 because of the tiny mark underneath Liberty's curls. [IMG]
Cool:smile
Where did that come from?
I think Richie was right when he said that reason for the price difference was due to the registries. Even with such a small population, I don't...
What an awesome post. I will definitely use this info if I ever decide to purchase a 1909-S VDB. Love the toning on the one in the photo.
The 1909 S VDB I found this post on "The 1909 S VDB" interesting and have nominated it accordingly for "Coin Talk Thread of the Week Nominations...
Clinker, Cool link and thank you for reducing the font size on your posts, it is much easier to read! On another note, is that his real name?...
Mike, I am not sure I would call it ragging but if that is how it is being perceived then I will tone it down a little. IMO, there is nothing...
That is an excellent post and I think you just summarized the entire debate (both sides) in two paragraphs. However, I still think that a...
Which one is it, if I send it back once it will come back MS68, but if I send it back 10,000 times a dozen times it will come back MS70. I...

You are making a whole bunch of assumptions without facts in order to prove a point that no matter how hard you try can easily be disputed. You...
Are you claiming to have private e-mails from PCGS and NGC graders admitting that they arbitrarily assign 69 and 70 grades. If so, you could...
I am thrilled that your tone has changed from unsubstantiated smack talk to patronizing me. Much better. Thanks!
OK. Let me rephrase. Just because YOU can't see the difference, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The graders at NGC and PCGS can see the...

Sorry, I should have mentioned that both of those are on the slab not the coin. The toning has no effect on the grade.
It seems that nobody really has a problem with conditional rarities overall but only with respect to differentiating between a 69 and a 70. Just...
I don't dispute that the coin is overgraded. That was actually the purpose of the OP, but I have a pet peeve about people crying AT without...
