He has a couple of items I am thinking of bidding on that will go for significant (to me) money but I don't know who it is.

    Wondering how he knows/can claim some of his pieces are "proof of record".

    Nothing indicated on the holder and the differences are pretty subtle are they not?

    No,no- the kids and the cat are all right honey.
    It's just that I got my PCGS grades.

    Any proof from the off years, when they did not issue regular proof sets, is by definition a proof of record.

    Dimitri has his reservations about this seller. I hope he chimes in with his take on him.

    Thats why I ask the question, I was really questioning if the seller knew enough to know if they were indeed proofs or not. Not that a TPG would ever make a mistake on these...

    and thanks WWW, if Dmitri has reservations about the seller that's probably all I need to know.

    Yes, true they (TPGs) do NOT always get proof status right. Grading is yet another issue on them. Well, caveat emptor!
