Ya know, I'm not sure if you really don't get it or if you just defend them no matter what - just because it's them. Sure, most of the folks on...
wcoins - what they are telling you is correct, those slabs are meaningless. Most of the time slabs like that are used on items being sold on the...
While I completely agree with your first paragraph, your last sentence, that was completely out of line paddy and you know it ! Not that it...
Already answered - they charged whether they slabbed the coin or not. That was the biggest complaint collectors had back then. They just couldn't...
I would add one more thing Paul. I wouldn't need to have ever submitted a single coin to a TPG or CAC to know any of this - and neither would...
There used to be a website that listed all the design changes, for all US coins, from around 1900 on. But it's defunct now. However, I have a copy...
I have no doubt of that Paul, none at all. And I'm not trying to be anything, never have been. In fact I have posted more times than I can count...
It's what used to be called a body bag, all TPGs used them. Prior to 2007 all problem coins were returned that way. Today, a few still are. But...
And it's not just with "rare" coins, nor is it just with coins that should be no grades and aren't. Same kinda thing occurs with straight graded...

You know as well as I do it's not a question of ability, not in any way. It's a question of the standards one uses to grade by. And we most...
Yeah, but it's still not the reason and can't be. For one, if it was it would have happened all the time - it didn't. Two, as I mentioned before,...
Boy, after all that you guys must be thirsty :) [ATTACH]
[IMG] I was afraid that was the one you were asking about. I say that because it requires a long explanation. The weakness in the wing and leg...
And before you ask or comment about it baseball I'll even go a bit further for you. But it's something that just about everybody already knows,...
Yeah it's a spot, but it's not a milk spot. But then people have taken to calling just about any spot or small blemish on bullion coins milk spots...
I guess that depends on how one defines experience. Me, I define it as having looked at many, many coins, both in hand and pics, that had CAC...
What exactly is it that you're asking me Cheech ?
I'm in agreement that ya can't tell if the coin's been whizzed or not based on those pics. But I have hunch the coin's been messed with in some...
To me, it sounded like he did just that in his post previous to yours. I mean he's saying flat out that it was done every which way. Me, I'm...
