Re: Slabs vs. Raw
I like both. Some coins I prefer graded such as key dates, really nice mint state coins and pedigree coins. At the same time I like raw coins. Old Spanish cobs &/or reales, old yet original U.S. gold and silver, gold nuggets, and ancients are fun when you can hold them raw in your hand.

Which grade do you think was more accurate in your opinion?From what I see, Anacs graded it without taking color into consideration (not market graded) while PCGS had a color bump.
I would split the difference and call it a 65. There is a cheek hit that looks significant enough to prevent a 66 in my view.I don't think it's hit I think it's just breaks in the toning.
The part I circled looks like a hit and not a toning break. It’s deeper than a toning break would be.

How about Gaylord Perry's big bro, Jim. He had a really good career with a cy young.he is also still kicking around at 90 years old!
Topps must have thought that Jim Perry was really good, because they gave their coveted #500 slot to him in their 1971 set. #500 is usually reserved for players such as Mantle, Aaron, and Ryan.
Re: Anyone want to share their new purchases?
This past weekend I picked up a couple or old Spanish coins and traded for a really cool gold shipwreck coin! Also picked up a key date Lincoln.
Re: Question about a Ebay return
We had an issue where we sent the wrong coin to an eBay buyer. We were able to send a return label to them via the eBay messaging system as an attachment.

Re: Is that a slabbed Trump card????
Collecting political campaign memorabilia that captures issues at that moment in time is far more interesting than what is pictured in this thread. For those that have an interest, consider doing a google search for the American Political Items Collectors (APIC).
There is so much to appreciate in terms of historical significance. There are a few instances when political memorabilia will surface at Coin shows…

Re: Post your Pedigreed Coins
An incredibly well respected pedigree among CBH collectors, and one that I’m very happy to own!

I wasn't looking for a Munson RC, but when a nice one turns up for a decent price, I couldn't help myself. I know this topic has already been discussed, but what are the main reasons he isn't in the HOF? Short career?
My all time favorite player. Super clutch-look at his 1976 World Series stats. Munson was the heart and soul of the great Yankee teams from 76-78. He was loved by his coaches, players, and fans.
