Think of it this way - with error coins you have a lot of different types of errors, yes ? You have off-centers, brockages, capped die, strike...
Lot of folks think that Jack, but it's not true.

Fair enough Mike. As I have said repeatedly, I am and always will be in favor of changing the grading system we have today. But one thing I was...
There was a time when that used to be, but no more. It stopped before slabs or TPG's even came into being.
And how many other thousands of people do you think there were just like you ? It comes down to what time you placed your subscription. I can...

I will grant you that a lot of people do call it that, but that doesn't make them right. No where in any market grading standards will you ever...

Both, and that's exactly why it's still in that holder.
Sell it it's over-graded.
Ms63.
What ??? How do you jump from 62ish to 68-69 ? I'm confused. What the OP said was - " Is it possible for a weakly struck coin, missing some...
