As always happens in these kinds of threads the real issue is definitions. If you are are going to ask questions like this, then you have to...
You have to be more specific about the exact coins you are talking about. And, you have to consider the manufacturing process itself. Business...
Happened literally overnight. The old ANACS had some of the toughest grading standards there were on some coins. Easy, the slab itself. The...
