Makes sense on the surface, but what if the coin is top-quality ?
Make sense....though supposedly the standards were so stringent in the late-1980's that you'd value the desirability over a 1-grade move. In...
I was just checking Ebay and was curious as to what some people were asking for older holders from PCGS/NGC. Specifically, the Old Green Holders...
Damn, I wonder if I should have ordered this one instead of the 7th ANA guide....hope it has pics like this one.:banghead:
Great info, thanks Lehigh !! I am learning alot...though at times it seems like the more I learn, the less I know. My ANA book arrives tomorrow,...
Lehigh......OK, first I made a typo. I wrote: "....if they are both MS-65*, right ? The 2nd one has much darker/noticeable blotches on the face,...
Again...waiting for my ANA Grade Book :D....but since there are more marks the lower you go it's going to be much tougher to determine an MS-63...

I just ordered the ANA 7th Edition, hope I didn't wast $15 !!?? :mad:
Game, Set, Match....awesome post Lehigh.:happy:

If you read his post, you saw that it shows what happened to the actual Trust. There is no survivorship bias because that implies losses are...

This is a really good quantitative and logical explanation of what has happened over the last 30 years. Great post.
OOOoooo....."system logic issue." I like the sound of that. As Kenny Bania said to Jerry Seinfeld on the word "puke"....can I use that ? :D
1 grade higher is understandable, esp. if you ignore the "*" and "+" stuff. 2 grades should be very rare over time. If a coin goes up by 3...
Separate names with a comma.
