Do kids still say that something is "dope"? [ATTACH] Barber dime hub type varieties anyone? [ATTACH]
Gosh, I never thought about it that way and it seems crazy. I remember my great-grandmother, who was born in 1887, and my great-grandfather on the...
This "no mint mark" stuff is so irritating. There has never been a P mint mark on cents except for 2017 for the 225th anniversary of the...
The PCGS/CAC super value thing is so easy to scoff at in return. One of my largest purchases was a 1900-S 10c PCGS MS65 CAC at Heritage, and on...
So... that EAC AU55 could be a technical MS63 that EAC grading thinks is only worth AU55 money, or it could be a technical AU55 that a TPG thinks...
Hmm, yeah, I'm not going to guess a grade based on a written description. This thread is making my head spin.
Entry post - I would also like the 1967 Canadian PL set. Why? My original collecting interest was Canadian George VI era but I also purchased some...
Heritage listing from 2004 says "Although attractive to the naked eye, this piece reveals numerous miniscule abrasions when inspected under a...
Not being that familiar with EAC grading, I have a difficult time understanding this. It's either uncirculated or it isn't. Why would they give an...

You can zoom in and see what they’re talking about.
You can get the right answer with two wrong grades. Not a good test of grading skill to be correct “on average.”
A GTG on a sample slab is an interesting approach to the concept.
I see two reviews on google where they were told that in order to get a return, they had to submit the coin for grading. One a fake 1877 TD and...
Ah, so the twist is to grade a coin you can't see. :)
If I was buying something like that retail, I would argue that they separate the coin value from the bezel/chain value and ring them up...
Clearly 1832. The notch in 3 is evident and the first star is way off compared to 1822 (which only had one die variety according to PCGS). I do...
Dryer coin or spooned. Look at the edge and see if there are a bunch of tiny whacks.
They paid $500 over spot? I wasn't aware that these had that much collector value, specially ex-jewelry.
