While that's true, it can be overcome with proper white balance adjustments in camera. All lighting sources cast certain colors in the...
Nice write-up. Only in coin collecting would "27 years old" be considered young! LOL I'm 33, and when I go to coin shows I'm still usually the...
Great coin Ryan. I know these are pretty hard to find in decent condition, and you're looks very nice.
Toned? Yes. Attractive? Um....not so much! :) I'll post it anyway. :) I've had this one for a long time, but just took new images today. If...
I was away for the weekend, and I just got back. I took a few new pictures of some of the W/T holdered NGC coins in my collection. 1944-D...
I personally would have let it go, but that's just me. All of this grief is not worth 6 pages of CoinTalk "discussion" for an unattractive raw...

I'm fine with CAC as a company, but what grinds my gears is that you can't look up on their website anywhere the coins that FAILED the stickering....
What is Detecto's eBay ID? I'd like to block him ;)
The "T" designation at NGC was a short-lived thing. They applied that designation (as well as "W" for white) from early 2000 through August of...
Yep, you interpreted my statement correctly. :)
I'm pretty sure if you ask nicely and send enough coins in you can have them all holdered or re-holdered at NGC with a "JOE SCHMOE COLLECTION"...
I have no idea who "Jankovsky" is, but this one is from his collection (??). It is a cool medal struck in the 1940s...and I'm guessing it was...
About 2 years ago, I got 4-5 PCGS boxes. I got sick of having to keep them closed with rubberbands, as they only fit PCGS slabs correctly....so...
