No, they are not !
The simple answer to your question is - it is illegal to counterfeit coins. Confederate bills - I dunno if it's illegal or not. Before there can...
I'm not sure I agree that it is tighter. But whatever the case may be, CAM and DCAM are not grades and have nothing to do with grades. CAM and...
I think it's how you're wording things that is the problem here. Based on what I can tell, it's only that 1 coin, PCGS coin #9135, that they do...
We've talked about the difference, and the time line, between technical grading and market grading before. In simple terms technical grading is...
Well if that's the case, what about these ? They're not ERH. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1907-saint-20-small-edge-letters/9198

You can also have a coin like this one - [ATTACH] [ATTACH] There were only about a 150 of these even minted. And yet when I bought it over...
