<p>[QUOTE="tammiGee, post: 3312264, member: 98133"]I do know every nuance and the history this particular coin carries. Grading? fooey on that entire concept....authactivity is what I am about in order to accurately reflect POP reports etc. factually. Face it me a 65 years old this coin will be in many different hands than mine after my passing before it is unsuitable for sale. So should collectors of the new gen know there is 1 more than the professional companies claim and seek it out if wanting an example before they are all but disappear? I would like to think so...Or should they have to settle for very poor eye appeal like the Ebay example noted. Detail and eye appeal is superior to most examples if displayed with the obverse out front like many collections are. Unless your are the Bass Bros. or the Late Buddy Ebsen,you may NEVER have an opportunity to obtain the second best in the set if you are out to complete that set. CORRECTION<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />CGS statement also included that they would not encapsulate it in their slab.....much less grade or authenticate it back in the early 90's... game of monopoly anyone? I would like to be the top hat.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
