You have to be a little bit familiar with the world coinage market to answer that. But those that are already know that Great Britain was quite...
No, I would not pay any premium for any coin based soley on the slab. But I have often paid a premium based on the coin itself ;)
So start another thread and post all of them. Or at least find a link to the one you mention.
But all of the coins he used in this thread have mirror surfaces - so I'm confused. Personally, I prefer method 2. It tends to not only show...
No, but just about all of them do contain thiurea which is what really does the work.
Not necessarily but maybe. It would depend on how good you are grading. Been discussed 1000 times - there are more than few who think that...

Killer coin ! Was never lucky enough own one myself.
Quite possibe that you are right Mike. However, as I noted in one of my earlier posts in this thread, there has been a recent and significant...
I agree with you about the toned coins 100%. Also agree that it is the market that changed regarding toned coins, the TPG's have merely reacted to...
Sure there is Ruben - there's people like me. And my grading skills are mimimal compared to a lot of them. And if you think we don't make a...
Hey - take it while you can get it. I'll be disagreeing with you tomorrow :D
He better mean cents. Seeing as how we're all crazy he'd have a heckuva time finding a trading partner if he meant sense :D
