The '63 PF did not develop a spot in the slab. The dang thing had the spots, yes spots - plural, on it the day it was slabbed. The 2003 was...
Those comments were only about coins graded 70. But how about coins that are not worth what worth what they were 1 year ago, or 2 years ago ?...
For one that wants to go broke. Insurance companies make their money from people that never collect on the insurance. That means they have to have...
You won't find slabbed coins on that site. But there are 2 examples of whay you wanted to find. But they sold in lots, so you'd have to sort out...
