Maybe I've been hiding under a rock, but I recently sent a few crossovers to PCGS. They graded and everything is fine. They also sent back the other TPG labels. I thought in years past that they sent them to the other TPG's so the populations would be accurate. Do they still report them to the other...

Recent Trueviews are decent but the quality is certainly lacking. Worth the $5, sure if you are doing your whole set. Not the quality we have come to expect out of others. jim

Just sent a few coins in and True view was $5 per coin. Is that a special they are running or did they change prices? Jim

Yes - Thank you very much Larry. 2 tough holes filled and I certainly appreciate the help. Jim

Happy to say that the 14.20 crossed to PCGS in the same XF45 grade. Also had an ANACS 14.18 in XF40 cross at the same grade as well.

Dam Italians were 2/3rds of the foreign counterfeiters. The media says so, it's in black and white - must be true as it is today. LOL Kidding of course "A safer method, commonly used by the Italians for passing bad silver is that in which the boodle carrier figures" WTF is that Strange how things li...

Coin received today and looks much better in hand with a lot of underlying luster. Attribution is correct and I think it will cross, but we will see. Overall happy with the purchase on a rare coin.

Yes mark from ebay, I should really wait till its in hand.

Dennis, appears from the pics to be correct, will see in hand. I won't comment on the 14.11 listed with the same seller since its an active buy it now.

One more down - 14.20. Tough coin to find, for sure.

Nice to see the fresh faces, welcome. Don't be afraid, we are here to help. Ask away. Thanks @messydesk, looked at the who's online numbers and they are much better. Thank you for what you do for our small segment of collecting.

Have not used them yet - but Greatcollections.com - 5% for coins under $1000 and 0% over $1000. Might be an option. Jim

Do you have a list of coins? Jim

I've been around a while, but never asked. I've probably got 6 or so that I think warrant another look for designation. I obviously don't want to waste Leroys time if I am missing the vam or a pup. What should procedure be for those we think could be but may not be something new. I did get my first ...

Sending PM - Interested in the Vam 227-1. Thanks

Obviously we all search the same places and get lucky every once in a while. Recently got an 8tf v5 in pcgs65 on heritage buy it now for under a grand. They are out there. But if both mark and others spot an 85 or 86, 8ts going to get expensive

Date looks funky - letters around the obverse are uneven distance from the rim. Counterfeit IMO.

My buying has picked up slightly but I think some tougher coins have been coming to market that I've been looking for. Quality and rare will always have a place somewhere. Jim
