It's at 6 o'clock on the reverse - I = Limoges.
yes, he does say a good bit more than that.
I think it is for a 5 year period of time. And if memory serves, NGC has won the bid the last 2 times. Before that, if memory serves, PCGS won...
The document I am talking about is far from being secret, it was written by Michael P. Lantz and originally published in Coin World in 1996, and...
You can talk about it and discuss it until the cows come home. But nothing that is said here is ever going to change anything. Those who believe...
I can't say about the toning or the grade based on those pics, but I wouldn't say it's FS. Too many breaks in my opinion.
I told you I could give you the article, I did not say I could post it here. If you want a copy then send me a PM with your email address and I'll...

No, they did not. There is a huge difference between monetizing a coin and making a coin legal tender. A coin can only be monetized when it is...
Nope, it is a purely subjective decision made by the TPG. And they are not always the most consistent on this issue.
That depends on what you are shoving. The correct way to do it is to place the coin in the bottom half of the holder, and then push the ring...
By all means send it in, in the slab of course, for review.
That kind of depends on the collector, and the subject in question. But it is not unheard of for some collectors who specialize on certain coins...
