Lol, I forgot who I was arguing with.
Yes, I tried to edit post after re-reading the OP, but it was too late, my bad.
The value of the slab is not monetary per se, rather it is related to liquidity. If you have a raw MS65 Morgan Dollar that you want to sell, in...
Well, rather than jump to anecdotal examples, how about we start with a Cointalk thread from 7 years ago. That's right, I started a thread on...
The rainbow toned coin market has been alive and well for over a decade. This fantasy about fads and cycles is just that, a fantasy. The amount...

High end rainbow toned coins, Eye appeal never goes out of style!
Sublime Bob!

That explains it, PCGS will not grade a Jefferson premium gem (MS66 or better) without the coin having at least above average luster. Many of the...

The Morgan Dollar photo is playing tricks on me. It seems to be very lustrous but there are so many areas of flatness and lack of detail that I...
If they accept coins with monochromatic toning for PR70 grades, I don't see why they wouldn't do the same for coins with rainbow toning. [IMG]...
