<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1378368, member: 19065&quot;]:welcome: to CT Eggman. </p><p><br /></p><p>Please take that heavily skewed and unsubstantiated post regarding one&#039;s personal opinion of PCGS with a grain of salt. They haven&#039;t done a thing to welcome you here nor attempted to discuss the topic you raised about your coins coming back with questionable color.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are a lot of CT members here who can help you with copper cents and problem coins, so don&#039;t be shy to post pics and ask the questions that leave you puzzled like the problem that left you venting here. Now, just because you&#039;ve owned older coins for a good number of years yourself that doesn&#039;t mean that the problem the TPG cited wasn&#039;t there all those years that they sat in your safe and under your care. Those coins had a long life before you came to possess them and it may be that you have to hone your eye some more in order to spot these issues before submitting more coins to this particular TPG. Your past collecting activity may have been fun but you seem to have come into possession of some problem coins then too. So, I wouldn&#039;t be shocked, but instead try to consider yourself a bit more &#039;experienced&#039; now, even if it was a little costly to learn about it this way. These examples might help you from repeating the mistake of buying problem coins (that you are now collecting in earnest) and finding out in another 20 years from now that they too had problems to begin with.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the link to your registry coins, it&#039;s great to see a new member with a lot of potential coins to share joining the forum. Even though that 1893-S Morgan got a Genuine, I still like that kind of worn toned coin with the lighter devices and darker fields. It&#039;s got character from a long life in circulation. </p><p><br /></p><p>Again, Welcome to CT! :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
