Re: What SPECIFIC detail/image on your favorite coin attracted you most to said acquisition?
I bought this one for the gold... when gold was ~$1200/oz... and was pleasantly surprised by the toning.

Here's some I've managed to acquire slowly. Definitely a difficult hunt on this series in a rattler.
Almost a year after joining and an EPIC first post! Gorgeous looking Busties!
Re: Let's see those Rattlers with Gold CAC stickers
Center St Gaudens is gold, there must be a lot of these around I would guess
Re: Instant regrets…
I still wish I had put in one more bid on this. John Agre beat me out and promptly got the coin into a PCGS 63+ holder as it deserved. (I still often think about a fantastic 1803 $10 that Agre also beat me out of but since this is World, I'll just cry quietly into my cup.)
I have a nice, original XF45 that I like a lot but I still think about this coin every time I look at mine.

1863 Judd-301 - 1863 w/L proof!
This is the lowest graded (only BN designation) coin between PCGS and NGC, at PF64BN.
Re: Show us your Bottom Pop favorites
PCGS VF 35 CAC. Lowest graded at CAC. Only 6 coins total with the green bean.

Re: North/South/Central American Coins Thursday, let's see them!
Well done @pruebas
Detail graded coins are not the end of the world...
Yes, Thursday, my first victim from the Menczer sale.
This is the only coin graded for the year, mint, and assayer. It is not details, but being the only one, it would be no problem at all if it were.
Happy Thursday everyone!

GAI pack crossover to PSA experiment
I decided to crack out 7 packs and send to PSA. The results are as follows:
GAI 6.5 - Altered Stock
GAI 7 - PSA 7
GAI 7.5 - PSA 7
GAI 7.5 - PSA 7
GAI 8 - PSA 7
GAI 9 - PSA 8 (This pack was stunning but upon close inspection had a small pinhole in it)
GAI 9 - PSA 8
Overall, I am happy with the results. The pack that came back as altered had a cert beginning with 101. All the others began with 103.

Congrats on the results. What years?
Thanks! 1973-1975. They no longer allow true crossovers so you need to crack them all out.
