I personally haven't used either of mine in years, I usually just check internet resources. I bought Volume I 5th Edition on preorder for my...
For me personally, I think to myself, "I paid these guys money to grade my stuff, obviously I'm entitled to the grade I want."
There's something about coins not breaking into the gem category (65+) that can irk me, even if the price difference isn't that much....
Happy for the FS, but I thought the grade was low. Maybe the above pictures aren't that good, but I've sent in similar war nickels to NGC that...
Fascinating. I checked for a few P/P varieties but not a DDO. I don't think one even comes up for Variety Plus.

Is that "COPY" faintly visible on the supposed bust quarter?
A "had" since I no longer own it but I pulled this from a roll. The other end was nearly identical and got the same grade (have pictures of it...
Looks like an FS-101?
Here's a PCGS 63 that sold a year ago for $1080:...
IMO it takes much more wear to blend the mound and FIVE CENTS on a Type 2.
I agree with the first as being a low grade MS. A little dirty but I like it. The second, I think looks good and clean but that itself isn't good...
Two more from the same lot. Nice AU 1919 with some light (if hazy) toning, also going in the album. Then there is this insanely lustrous 1938-D/S...
$50 on the nose (or noses) for a herd of 15 bison. There was some good stuff in there, here's nice circulated examples of a 25-D and 25-S. (Shame...
