[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3266525, member: 10461"]= [URL='https://eacs.org']Early American Coppers[/URL]. A group of specialist folks who collect and deal in early large cents and other coppers. They're a scholarly bunch with insanely tight grading standards and lots of expert conservation tricks up their sleeves. Very deep, very intense folks, from what I've seen. I like to poke gentle fun at them for some of their quirks (their crazy-conservative grading and slab aversion, for example), but I also deeply respect their knowledge and dedication. For example, [URL='https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/7my2PhjhXCrR9PLbqB5k/rpDhpechGyNeriZmb0by']this coin[/URL] would only grade AG3 by EAC standards. (Haha- OK, no, I'm kidding- but they [I]are[/I] super-strict graders with their own set of standards.)[/QUOTE]
