[QUOTE="samjimmy, post: 166531, member: 3813"]I haven't gotten it yet, but I have high hopes that I won't be returning it :D ... 1901 Indian in an NNC slab graded MS64 Red for... $31 -now I can't say (yet) as I don't have it in hand, but as I said I have high hopes that it will be decent and if it's even close I think it will be have been OK. We shall see. I'm one of those that isn't too big on slabs from any company, but I will look at certain coins (such as ancients and older proofs) as I trust them more than myself in determining if the coin is authentic (or actually a proof). I'm sure they've been wrong, but that percentage is lower than the percentage of me being wrong. Aside from looking closely at the coin (ignoring the grade), I think they probably aren't as good at identifying cleaned coins, but that seems iffy all around (boddy bagging uncleaned coins as cleaned etc.) anyhow so I try to use my best judgement. I'm hoping the one above makes up for the last auction I won where I was looking at the RD row and pricing (but buying a RB coin). DOH! I spent too much on that one (no wonder I won it).[/QUOTE]
