    Those do not look full bands to me. A couple of them aren't even close.

    You might want to rethink your post. It will get you banned and the post will be deleted.

    Not sure any of these should qualify as FB... not even sure they should all be MS. Sorry.

    You could avoid your frustration by purchasing coins that have already been slabbed in the grade and designation you want.

    Going to coinfacts images (and then the cert number look up) - each of the above coins are as stated by the OP.

    That is they are graded by pcgs as Full Bands. The first two are tied top pop for FB grade and the next two are about a grade below top pop for FB grade. Each of the four coins in the OP are registered to or in the set registry of the same well known collector.

    Here is the second one 1986 P (one can look the others up if desired)

    Ah, now I see what the actual complaint is. PCGS isn't always consistent. Yeah, that happens. It's part of the ante for playing.

    It gets tiresome finding the absolute best dimes you can and sending them in to get graded only to get back the disgusting MS grade with no full bands on it. If I were someone else submitting these coins, like say a billionaire that has been getting fleced by the company for the last 20 years, ithey would not only get the FB designation but would be top pop or close to it. Why can't us normal folks get a fair shake? Always the same everywhre.

    Instead of posting photos of coins that are graded as FB, post photos of your coins that you are complaining about.

    lol.

    Many of the posters above who intended to disagree with our anonymous poster ended up inadvertently agreeing.

    These designations seem to have some room for interpretation at all the TPGs.

    However, to the OP - I don’t think any submitters are receiving preferential treatment in designations - graders don’t know who the submitter is unless the coin is a recognizable rarity.

    Further, if I was a billionaire collector, I probably wouldn’t be spending too much time on dimes from the 1970s. Likely either buys already slabbed or submits in bulk until a top pop is achieved. Not that the billionaire is doing either the purchasing or submitting theirselves - they have people for that ;) .

  • Options

    So what have we all learned from this? The first thing is you so called experts are far from it. You look like the fools that you are (except a couple) But in actuality you are right, these 4 coins should not be FB nor top pop. But when you are a billionaire and PCGS grades according to who submitted them rather than what the coins are, this is the results. My point has been made. Everything I wrote originally was true, but most of you assumed each sentence was tied to the next one when in fact they were all independent. Now how many of you want to take back your post and say now that all 4 are indeed FB. Remember, your masters are watching...

    Please don't quote the standard PCGS nonsense about they don't know. They for sure know who submits them. Those that get special treatment even get a special line of number sometimes. How many coins have you submitted that started with 8******** zero right?

    Like I said upstream, I get your point now. PCGS isn't always consistent with grading, and that goes for any series. Here's my 1872-cc quarter thread (below). It cost me an extra $170 in grading fees to get the grade I should have gotten the first time. And, there's a 6k difference in price between the grades.

    The difference that and this thread is, I'm not emotionally invested in it. It's a hobby, and should be fun. It sucks that I paid an extra $170 but it's part of the ante if you want to play the grading game and I knew that going in. My advice to you (not that you'll take it, or even care), is to drop the emotion and crappy attitude, and try to enjoy the hobby.

You seemed like an expert and quite sure before but now that you have disagreed with your master then oops, well actually i uh uh, right? My point wasn't as much the coins as this forum is just a bunch of cheerleaders for PCGS. Most have no real opinion or thoughts of thier own. It is just whatever your master thinks, you think.

    I don't understand the purpose of this post, unless you just wanted to start an argument. You should know by now that around here if you post an FB dime, a FBL franklin, or a FS Jefferson Nickel there will be people who say they aren't. Same goes with posting unc coins, there will be those who insist they are AU. The vast majority of posters here on CU are normal collectors, only a few are professionals in the field, or experts. You make it sound like everyone claims to be an expert, which is simply not the case.
    Do you really think Hansen is submitting raw coins to PCGS? I seriously doubt he has the time or the need to do that, he has so many top pop coins because he can afford to buy them.

    @Papacito said:

    I have a slew of coins that I submitted that have cert numbers starting with 8. Here is a sample of them from my inventory.

    For the record I am pretty bad at identifying FB Roosevelt dimes.

    I will be honest 1 time and then you all can defend what you need to defend and say how dumb I am and that will be that. i lied in the previous post. While I do believe special treatment and lax grading is given to certain individuals, my problem isn't in a FB designation or not. I just wrote that so a bunch of you would tell me what we all can see and that is those coins do not deserve a FB designation nor a top pop. And you all know it. Anyway, My problem is well I will just show you. And I know many of you need to save face so have at it. Tell me about lighting and how the pictures will look different and blah blah blah... Please keep in mind the photos from PCGS are called TrueView. Here are some coins I sent in vs what I got back. i don't think they are the same and I will explain why as we go along. Well, until my ban comes which won't be long I am sure. Then you all can have at it and even the score because it is for sure 1-0 me right now.

    I have those coins as exibit A best in class and I have the special number sequence that is complete unneccessary if all is as all of you cheerleaders claim. I also dont care about your opinion on if it was a good idea because it worked out beautifully; A bunch of robots attacking on behalf of their master and then the DUH moment and then the retractions. I think my judgement wase right on what thappens here and it went exactly as I thought it would. What you call a "stunt" i call an eye opener. And a time for those that posted the "truth" when it was my coins and then the overqll attitude of when it wasn't. A HUGE change wouldn't you say? We went from no way they are FB and they arent even MS to yeah well slip through cracks and i'm no expert, aand blah blah blah any excuse you can come with. Did one one you have the conjose to stick with your initial assessment. Nope. All either buried their heads or retracted i some way. And then you with your opinion of my judgement. It needed to be done to show you all what you are. Great job though. You make daddy proud I am sure.
