    At the Baltimore Expo, a dealer got kinda huffy with me when I wouldn't sell him my 1950 proof set for greysheet bid ($455). I also turned down an offer of $605 from one of Heritage's buyers. NGC just graded the Franklin PF67. That's a $2800 coin all by itself. The lesson? If you believe in what you have, stick with your gut. (This is a cell phone pic of it in the Capital holder).

    Thanks, man. It doesn't always happen that way, but I'm definitely feeling vindicated in my decision.

    Some more, starting with an attractive near gem 1907 Quarter Eagle . . .

    A very scarce 1897-S Half Eagle graded MS61 by PCGS . . .

    An 1893-S $10 Lib in PCGS MS63, CAC approved . . .

    And a really clean, original 1912 $10 Indian I was sure would grade higher than the MS62 awarded by NGC. Quite a disappointment for me, but there's a learning opportunity for me here . . . when I figure out what I missed.

    Picked this up a few hours ago. I think it grades G6; not bad for a semi-key date. Looks slightly better than the G6 example in Grading Coins by Photographs. Rinsed in acetone for a few minutes and into an airtite she goes! Polish_20191215_134756525.jpg

    Why do you think it graded MS60? It doesn’t really look that bad...? Actually it looks great for a 20C piece.

    I only needed a couple of points to move up to rank #7 with my G$1 “Gold Rush” set. So I filled an easy slot, the 1856 gold dollar:

    I love the pcgs registry because it has an app for smart phones which is really convenient. I couldn’t find one for ngc, anyone know if there is one?

    NGC has one, at least on Android. It's just called NGC.

    Yup I see it now. No idea why it didn’t show up the last time I looked. Thank you
