Here are some of my favourites I would recommend, some of which I have and others on my bucket list: 1. A German “Three Brothers” or “Wildman”....
If the “market acceptable” coins are going to get detailed as opposed to just being given a lower grade, then yes, that appears to be the case....
I’ve always understood CAC to be a safeguard against overgrading by TPG’s, as well as a market maker for coins meeting CAC’s standards. Therefore...
Will the CAC network dealers buy the new CAC slabs at the CAC price, or will that still only apply to other companies’ slabs with stickers?
The bottom line for me is that if I buy a coin slabbed by CAC in a given grade, say MS65, I would expect it to be the equivalent of an MS65 in a...
I wonder if the new grading service will result not in grade inflation, but deflation. It seems CAC would grade on the conservative side, and...
I started a Buffalo nickel set about 15 years ago and never got around to finishing it. I did buy a nice 13S Variety 2 a while back, so I may go...

Qatar is not part of the UAE. Their dirham would be separate.
The “VF25” grade is what did it for me. It reminds me of a joke about 2 guys trying to tell each other’s horses apart. They found that one horse...
I had my bathroom remodeled a few years ago in a portion of my house built in the late 80’s. The contractor pulled out a tin from under the...
I don’t understand the criteria for “plus” grades. I can see the technical grade being what it is for luster and marks, but if this coin isn’t at...
64+ both times
65 both times. Subdued luster but bumped up for eye appeal.

Definitely an interesting motif. Not sure how they came up with 3000 years of Georgian statehood. It seems a bit of a stretch… They do have...
I’ve also been to the one in the arcade and it didn’t have the selection I was hoping for and it seemed pricey. But was fun to add that to my...
