I was going to make the same offer.
While I agree with you that SEGS is not a bottom feeder, I feel that most of these companies do little to help themselves in terms of their...
My original impression was MS65 FB. I have seen nothing in the new photos that would make me change my mind. However, your photos are not great...
It doesn't matter if the numbers conform to your engineering definition of comparable. What matters is public perception, and normal people (not...
Uh oh! You fell for the trap.
There is a reason my ox is not getting gored, because I would not purchase ANACS graded coins in that value range. IMO, E-Bay's decision is...
Hard to say, both of my ANACS coins are MS65 common date Morgan Dollars with nice toning. One in a small white old holder that I bought in...

I just came up with a great idea. A sample slab low ball registry set. @gabemann3000, got any photos? I wanna see how bad the coin really is....
IMO, that is a pretty common toning pattern for a toned IHC's. The coin in the link is another story. Everyone knows that the correct toning...

They would if it is counterfeit.
