    Hey! Those coins are pretty cool! Remember that there is still quite a bit of gold in those coins as well!

    Dave - LOL. These are braddick-esque! It looks like they went through the salloon coffers in the old west a BUNCH of times.

    P.S. Braddick... got any truly P01 Buffalos? I'd like to see what that might look like.

    Ursabear,

    Since the date is weak to begin with on buffs, unless it was a coin such as the 37-D 3-legger which needs no date to be identified, I don't think a PO-01 could possibly be slabbed...

    I'm telling you, this P1 - AG3 stuff is catching on.

    Could Braddick have just been way ahead of his time?

    Some days we hear more sense from our teenage members, Airplanenut, Petescorner and littlewicher
    then we do from a number of our grownups.
    Its gives one hope for the future of this Forum and of the nation. Bear

    i agree that the younguns can be quite sensical, while we're often all being nonsensical, but i think petescorner (Dan) might be a shade older than a teenager. (seeing as how he's got him a youngun already). but he is quite sensical from what i've read him write and i'm sure he'll take it in the good way that you meant.

    well if we're listing 'em i'd think we be missing a biggie by leaving out DCAM Keifer!

    I love his AG03 PCGS gold, but I've got him slightly beat. My "Worse Known" PCGS Registry has a Ten dollar Indian in PCGS FA02 (crossed from an NGC FA02!).

    The problem with these is there is NO WAY of knowing the Pops because PCGS won't list any coin VF08 and under!
    I've seen raw 2 1/2 Indians that were PO01 (in fact a board member here showed me one in an ANACS PO01 holder at the last Long Beach show!).

    Most of these coins were good luck charms/ pocket pieces.

    Now, be honest: Wouldn't it be cool to see a High Relief 1907 in PO01?

    do you think it might be easier to get a '33 in that condition, (what with the lower relief, and all)?

    Pat -

    What does a VF08 look like, anyway? image

    Anyway, I agree with you, it is kind of annoying the way PCGS lumps grades together (especially in this case the P1 through G6 range). Heck, since they assign grades of P1, F2, etc, why not show them? Use a smaller font, add a few pages to the guide. This ain't rocket science, boys.

    It would be very interesting to see the breakout of 1793 Half cents, or 01-S quarters, in that range, for example.

    I wonder if their online reports break it out in finer detail? Anyone know?

    Dave, They don't.
    Also, if PCGS can label a coin MS08 (on a recent off metal War Nickel) I figured that gives me editorial rights to make the same error! image
