Yes, it will harm coins.
That's because these coins were made with a satin finish. It's normal for them to look this way.
There is no such thing as an expert regarding NT vs AT - either at the TPGs or anyplace else.
stuff - While I am truly sorry to hear of this it is not necessary to post it in every section of the forum. Everybody will see it here and...
Nobody ever has any protection. And it doesn't matter if what you say is true or not - you can still be sued for it. And if you are sued it's...
I'm inclined to agree. It's not much different than if you buy any coin from a dealer, then submit the coin, and then find out it is a problem...

Matt - What you have there is a 2 reales from Mexico, not Peru. It was minted between 1548 and 1567 under the assayer Luis Rodriguez. It is a...
Because there is little to no market for them.
Info is correct. The suit did involve comments made on rcc, they were about ACG (Accugrade), and Peter the owner of this site was one of those who...
