I just picked up one of those that is supposed to be MS 63. Will try to post when it comes back from grading and is in auction.
You don't think some of the overgraded or slightly problematic ones might do better in a PCGS secure holder? At least it would look like they are...
So you mean they would sock them away for awhile?
A few months ago I bought an old PCGS holdered (2nd or 3rd generation) Seated Dollar MS61 for $1800. I thought it was a great deal as CDN bid/ask...
Here are some hypothetical or likely cases that would not be worth cracking out and resubmitting: A common date type $20 Liberty or Saint coin in...
Yes they tend to be original coins, not dipped, and when they were holdered, the value of those coins based on the CDN were a lot less, so there...
Thanks for the feedback. It probably is not worth spending the $10 to find out next time I send them some coins. Here is PCGS' photograde...
Any thoughts on chances on this one getting a CAC sticker? http://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/26298/1856-S-Liberty-Double-Eagle-PCGS-XF-45

On the "Proxibid" auctions, there was a Coin World article (January 16, 2012) on how many lots were mis-identified and sold for a lot less than...
The only alternative NGC lists is the R/inverted R issue to the regular 1862 piece, with a population of 1.
It will happen someday, I really miss the relationships I had to books. The internet gives us the resources for free, but someday a meteor storm...
So there is no book on this coin? PCGS prices did not list world coins like this last I checked. I will check NGC.
It is amazing the amount of $$$ these outfits pay in advertising with Coin World, Coin Age, and other glossy numismatic publications. Wouldn't it...
I was visiting a friend's coin shop and he showed me this GB Sovereign that he has. It is AU. Does anyone know what it is worth, as the literature...
On this topic, I would comment on $20 Liberties and the population figures over the last 20 years or so. If you looked at the changing population...
Good points. But one would hope for a source for more up to date information on coins with investment potential. Other hobbies, avocations and...
