The 1912-S Nickel that baseball21 discounted in a previous post due to two rolls hitting the market all at once tripled in Pop from September 2013 to January 2016, and has added another 66% in the last year. In that same 3-1/2 year timeframe, the Population in MS65 has increased less than the Pop in 66 has <i>in the last year</i>.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s quite possible that this is all explainable by repeated crackouts and previously-ungraded examples hitting the market. This, in an environment when PCGS is touting its&#039; Secure Plus technology and ability to detect both counterfeits and coins it&#039;s seen before as an antitheft procedure....</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither theory makes them look very competent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
