Ah, no, I'm not meaning to attack you. I'm really not. You just seemed to take everything I said and sorta distort it just a little bit and...
Ah, again, I've forgotten that you sometimes intentionally misrepresent me. I didn't say that CAC created the idea that things within a grade...
Yes. I'm not sure if you've followed @Jack D. Young 's work, but he's done a lot research and tracking down modern so-called "super-counterfeits."...
No, that is no consolation at all! I do about 2-3 loads of laundry a week (just for myself). I have two roommates (both girls... so they do more...
And see, this is why it hasn't caught on.... There literally isn't, and shouldn't, be a "final" grade! There should only be the aspect grades! I...
I'm sorry, sometimes I forget who I'm arguing with, their history, their perspective, and arguments we've had in the past. Yes, CAC...
Not entirely sure what you mean here.... this counterfeit was made in China within the last couple of years. It has no intrinsic value beyond the...
And that's fair. Eye appeal is absolutely subjective. 100%. In some grading scheme, you might even just rank that as "color" from "white" to...
Fair point. The complete discussion is far more complex than I've boiled it down to. In this context, I was referring specifically to how some...
Haha, I thought I was being subtle and clever and witty and such. I don't give a flying fig. CAC. I'm not emotional about CAC as much as I used...
Now this... this I like. As you know, I've been trying to do this for a few years. Strike, Luster, Eye Appeal, and Contact Marks (or wear,...
There aren't that many green stickers. There was a lot of negative reaction to it when it was first announced. And now it is incredibly popular!...
A lot of people said the same thing about that stupid damn green sticker when it was first announced, and look at it now.
A bit of cogitation, rumination, and perspiration are imperative before a bit of postulation!
Well, the PCGS one I'd wager VF details, cleaned or polished in a way that is unattractive and I would avoid it, key date or not. The NGC coin...
All I'll say, tommy, is that if something seems too good to be true... it probably is.
Yes, of course I agree 100%. I mean, that's just basic arithmetic. Has it been rejected by the market? It has been proposed several times in...
Is @CaptHenway in the house? I would really, really love to hear some historically based perspective on what he thinks about this. Since, you...
There are a lot of measurement scales that had good ideas, made a big impact, became super popular, and then when people thought a bit more about...
Well, it is quite clearly a fairly low quality fake. I don't own any Flowing Hair halves, but I am currently in the middle of reading Steve...
