Re: $3 Gold
I would try to image the coin clearly with a cell phone. Like the Captain and others, Im over 95% that it's not authentic, but your images are too blurry to be certain. Clear cell phone pictures might save you at least $100 And several months of time, but it's your decision.
Re: A Repeating 3-Day GTG Experiment - 1st Coin Completes 7-21 - REVEALED 67+ CAC
I'll guess MS67+ and if it weren't stickered by CAC I very well might have guessed MS68.
Said another way, I'll be shocked it the coin grades less than 67.

Re: Which PCGS form to use, and how many forms?
The "show" form only lists 'show service levels' (e.g., "show rarity", "show express", "show", etc.). So, if you do not want to pay a premium to get the coins back at the show, this is not the form for you.
Unless I am missing something, you should use the "U.S." form for the U.S. coin, and the "World" form for the foreign coins.

Re: Why do people send coins in to be graded?

The comment about getting coins to be graded so you can conduct business over the internet I think is incorrect. Grading provides a bit of an insurance policy to degree, that establishes a range of value for a particular coin, and that such coin is indeed genuine.If you are buying over the internet, you are buying sight unseen. Anyone telling you otherwise is either not being honest with you, or doesn't understand that you or someone you trust really needs to see a coin before buying it. That, or the seller provides reasonable return privileges.
I suppose technically speaking buying a coin without actually viewing the coin in hand is sight unseen but I doubt most of us, myself included, would buy a coin on the internet without pictures based on the seller’s description only.

Re: Is this trade dollar real?
The chops are not right except for the large one above the eagle's head.
Hard to be 100% definitive on the coin with those pictures but I don't see anything that stands out right away.
Nevertheless, because of the dubious chops, I wouldn't be comfortable giving it the all clear without an in hand investigation.

Re: 1989 Randy Johnson vs Ken Griffey Jr
75 percent of my collection are cards from the 50's and 60's. I started collecting 70's cards the last couple of years.
You obviously have a problem with me so I suggest you block me or stop reading what I post. You remind me of a woman I broke up with many years ago.

But of course you do understand HHL.
Please feel free to set the forum straight with your knowledge on the HHL.
Thanking you in advance.
Duh. Own more then one house/property and figure the rest out. Is yours and others here common sense and reading comprehension really that lacking. HHL means House Hold Limit. Idiots born everyday.
Sounds great. I'm rushing out now to buy some property so I can double dip on a Mint release. I'll get right on that. Thanks for the valuable, and easy to implement, suggestion.
Quit being a tool! What a childish reply. Yes. Own more then one property. Do you? You just assume incorrectly that someone who orders more then one of a mint offering with a HHL of 1 (one) is automatically gaming the system, juggling addresses, being dishonest, just a flipper....etc. & the orders will be cancelled. Well my orders are not & will not be cancelled.
Geeze, should I or anyone be embarressed that they own more then one property just so they can, in your words, "double dip" on a mint offering.
Dude, seriously, admit you don't know it all. In fact your opinions are wrong more then they are right. You know it, we all know it.
LMAO
