<p>[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 185408, member: 2972"]A word of caution -- TPGs don't screen out all problem coins, only the ones they deem "market unacceptable". There are many, many problem coins in TPG holders including cleaned, AT, repaired, lasered, recolored, dipped, wiped, puttied, and all other types of cleaning/doctoring. While there is a certain amount of safety in purchasing a TPG certified coin, one cannot buy with abandon and expect problem-free coins. The saying "buy the coin not the holder" applies well to this discussion....Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
