    It would seem, like always, that there are two sides to every coin.. and story. From answers posted it isn't difficult to tell those who and who do not like Mr Briggs. As previously stated, I have dealt with Mr Briggs and his company. And I found him to be an honest man. And a man who does not need to "steal" anyones coin.
    I can also tell you from experience that, at least NGC, other TPGers at times seek his advice. Personal experience.
    Until shown otherwise I would entrust a $50,000 coin to him. And without question, I Would Never Send a coin to anyone uninsured.

    I have a 2005 US Mint Set which I sent out to a well known attributer which got tangled up in a dispute between him and another well know attributer with the net result being that my mint set was lost.

    Sometimes this stuff just happens when you least expect it and t
    Boo Yah!

    I've got a $100,000 coin in my SDB, but I doubt that it would sell for more than $10,000 in an open auction which is why it's never been in an open auction.

    It's certainly special but..................only to me.

    He sent me an email saying he found it all of a sudden. He told me he was going to try to find one to replace it(when it first went missing) which is not the same so I asked he send it to me so I can make sure it is the same coin. I just keep getting the run around and frankly its getting old. It shouldnt be so difficult. Me and my family just want our property back. He did send me $400 (which he argued with me so I had to take what I could get at the time) and I would gladly send back but I need to make sure its the same coin which I have microscope pix of. Pretty pethedic :eek:(
    Thank you for the reply and have a great day.

    Again, not taking sides here, but.. Why don't you post a picture of the family Heirloom that Mr Briggs has so tragically deprived you and your family of.
    We are all about pictures here.

    On another note Larry in his email to me asked I retract my 1st note so I do. Hope this will help me get my coin back. You do not need to beware of Larry and his company I just want the world of coins to know how I was treated and my unfortunate missfortune in trusting someone with a rare and sentimental piece. I understand this can happen to anyone just the way it was and still is handled is not very professional.

    Rick, you're having trouble posting the pics because of the way you are trying to do it. To post the pics, just click on the Upload a File button. That will open a dialogue box that allows you select the picture file(s) you have on your computer. Once you've done that click post reply and your pictures will be posted.

    Your making it more difficult than it needs to be.

    When you select the "Reply" word, your reply opens up with quoted text to the post you are replying to.

    At the lower portion of the reply window are three selectable options:

    1. Post Reply
    2. Upload a File
    3. More Options...

    Select "Upload a File" by placing your cursor over the words and pressing your left mouse button.

    This should open a window to files on your computer.

    Navigate to the location on your computer which holds the files of the picture(s) you want to post.

    Select one of the pictures you want to post and then select OPEN

    You will be returned to the "Reply" screen and a little task bar will display the progress of the upload.

    Once the upload is complete, select "Full Image"

    CT Post Pic-01.jpg

    The picture will be placed where ever the cursor is within your reply.

    At this point, the only thing I know for sure is that member Rick Brown doesn't know how to post pictures.

    I also know, but not for sure, that the subject item is not a coin but an "encased stamp" which some could confuse as a "coin". These stamps are completely encased and have lettering on the reverse which is probably where the OP got a date from.

    21860_lg.jpg

    From doing an Internet Search, the value of the item is dependent upon many factors such as condition (duh) and stamp value (5 cents, 10 cents, 24 cents, etc).

    From the mixed responses of the OP I have no idea what's going on other than he's not getting what he thinks he deserves or as quickly as he would like to get it.

    I can assume that we'll never really hear the end of this one..........

    Wouldn't you say fair market value or the amount of money you would get at an open auction is indeed the worth of your coin?

    Unless you are valuing your emotions built into this asset.

    .....:stop: Stop the madness.
