Can you give me a link to the bad '09-S, rlm? Lance.
Supposedly the gov't is prohibited from auctioning them under the terms negotiated with the anonymous buyer of the lone '33. Lance.
Disappointing, but maybe not surprising. Here's the brief Coin World article. I wonder what will become of the coins. The Smithsonian doesn't...
Here are pix of a '78 proof and a '78-S MS. Lance. [IMG][IMG] [IMG][IMG]
Poof. Lance.
Yes, it's fake. eBay will pull it down. Lance.
I can't believe there's no "best offer". Lance.
I remember Don Willis responding to this assertion. It went something like this: "Nonsense. Why wouldn't we want great coins in our slabs and out...
I guess they could have set it up that way. But I'm sure a lot of folks wouldn't be happy about a downgrade so PCGS made the current grade as the...
Unless otherwise stated, and for the purposes of this discussion, we assume that a cross attempt means same grade or better. (Yes, you can ask for...
Several years ago I submitted a few dozen gem wheaties in NGC holders to PCGS. About 70% crossed fine. I was surprised it wasn't higher. Since...

The answer to your question is really quite simple: your set must consist of whatever we say. Just don't ask us too often. Lance.
Acetone will not harm the finish or luster. I've left silver and gold in acetone for many days...more than a week on occasion. It is perfectly...
You've probably heard this before...any key that is not in a trustworthy TPG slab is suspect. Really, why would anyone leave that much money on...
Graders are paid quite well, from what I understand. Well into six digits. Of course the work is frantic and stressful, and I'll bet few of them...
That's a pretty good rant. Why do you keep going back to them if they've messed up nearly every submission? Lance.
It is not worth grading those coins, no. It would be a waste of money. It is a very good idea to learn how to grade. There are plenty of...
This arrived from Rick Snow yesterday, along with two others from Heritage. It's a little dark but the luster is there and the colors are a bit...
