It's also quite possible that it's just that - extra thick. It happens.
Well I guess it depends on what you consider "retail" to be. Some will claim that retail is the price published in coin mags and the like. I do...
I can only suppose you are asking about the most recent time when I think they loosened their standards. But exactly ? No, because it wasn't a...
Paul not everything written in a magazine is false, twisted, biased - or whatever other word you want to use. There are these things called facts...

A cheap lesson, count your blessings. In the future do not buy slabbed coins unless they are NGC or PCGS (And even then, you would be well served...
