<p>[QUOTE="KBBPLL, post: 10245896, member: 104064"]ANACS told me a couple years ago to get James Wiles (CONECA) or Wexler to attribute my Barber dime discoveries. Wexler never responded, Wiles said they now leave it up to the "specialty groups", in this case BCCS. ANACS also said it had to be published, or something like that. So... I discovered it and I published it, does that count? NGC said there had to be "collector interest", which of course is a chicken/egg problem. If CPG or somebody with a wider audience publishes it, then there's interest, but they won't publish it unless there's interest. You get the idea. CPG said they'd publish it 2+ years ago, then told me there wasn't space, then 2 years later contacted me again about it, wanting everything redone in a week, and I didn't feel like wasting a bunch of time again. I kind of gave up on it, but maybe I'll pursue ANACS again at some point. I don't know what the process with PCGS is but it's a giant time suck from my experience trying to get something recognized.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
