Nice batch of tokens. Not sure who grades the best on these - but if pressed, I like PCGS slabs better than NGC. Just a personal preference. :)
Nice pickup. Personally from the pictures I am not sure it would upgrade, but it also very well might. Can just be a toss up at times.
To me the coin is middle to middle of VF. I am thinking the coin was just not fully struck - breast and E Pluribus Unum. In the end I think it...
Looks nice, but I will go with XF-45. The color looks a little washed out in the pictures and with the weak strike it is kind of hard to tell.
No problem what so ever - learned something new today so I can rest easy tonight. :)
OOOH - lets all scratch our initials in something modern not valuable - like cent, nickel or quarter. Then turn them loose in change and see if...
LOL - Not sure that always works, but I know what you mean with tpg graded coins. I can look at a coin in my collection 20 times and get 1 grade....

Welcome back. Sorry to hear about your store. But you have a job you really like - that is great in and of itself. Enjoy!
Not literally 2 seconds, but yes they do not spend minutes on each coin. They would not make a profit if they spend too much time on 1 individual...
I did not read the whole thread, but I do believe the grading companies did give some coins a break because of the submitter - I am specifically...
A little bit bigger copper - first one I added in a while. [IMG]
I think Chris nailed it first. Cool coin though.
