Really ? Hmmm - how about that damaged coin you had me look at the the other day ? That was slabbed by PCGS as MS65. Yeah, the one with the 3...
You are absolutely correct, in the 6th edition of the ANA grading standards there were some changes made to the standards - 2 of them, and for 1...
Howdy Small Time - Welcome to the Forum !! Just about any dealer anywhere will accept credit cards. Look in the Numismatic Resources section...
Bone, CLCT's stock price has been in the toilet for as long as I can remember. And there's just a slight bit of difference between what you think...
Well yeah the standards did change. But your comment was - Are you admitting you were wrong ? I admit when I am wrong all the time, but I...
