Gaudy gimmicky slabs just cheapen the brand.

Regardless of how you look at it, that ship has sailed. Trader Bea, Vaultbox, Ultrabreaks, Witter Bricks, First Strikes, autographs, NGCx, Bag Frags, white/black/red/green/blue/purple plastic inserts, oversized holders, etc. My "old guy gripe" is that with all of these "innovations," no one can seem to replicate the SEGS topside label where you can read what the coin is when stored. : )

The ones that don’t include return privledge? I block and neg them on sight if they send me crud.

I offer returns and I try not to sell crud, but what's your eBay ID? I'd like to go ahead and block you preemptively.

I agree. No return policy means the item is as-is. Bid and buy accordingly, but don't complain unless the item was described inaccurately.

That's not what I said...I have the receipts.

@WQuarterFreddie -

NONE of your discussions are about "collecting" , they're all inflammatory topics about Vaultbox or the like.

I just received an email that my Ike's have shipped

Apparently, Mr. Feld decided to take a much needed break from the boards after recently trying to bring sanity to a thread here on Flowing Hair Gold privy coins; literally an impossible task absent a (much needed) slight modification of the rules here (but that discussion is for another day).

Let’s not have this interesting thread on W quarters also quickly deteriorate due to a “lover’s quarrel” between a couple valuable forum members. I don’t give a darn about VaultBox - that discussion has absolutely no place here on this tread. If anyone wants to talk about that topic, please hunt down 18 month old threads and go hurl accusations, or defenses to conduct over there (which I won’t need to waste my time reading). Fair enough?

As to W quarters, I have a couple substantive points to make on the subject, if we can get back on task now. Everyone OK with getting back to discussing the market for W quarters heading into 2025?

Wondercoin.

Just remember; a $10 coin in a $30 slab is still only worth $10.

Circulated quarters from the 50sv and 60s are only worth bullion value.

Uncirculated quarters from the 70s and 80s would have to be exceptional to be worth grading. In most cases, they are likely only worth face value.

The easiest way to get a sense of grading is to look at the PCGS photograde guide.

why do you think pcgs didn't put damaged on the label, plus i wonder why the holdered a dateless coin
