My next GTG...

My next guess the grade will be an ICG MS-63 that I'll send to ANACS (MS-63), then to NGC (MS-63), then to PCGS (MS-63) and finally to CAC (green bean)... then I'll post it here and ask everyone to guess the grade! I know it sounds silly, but I just want to ensure it's an MS-63! image

    That coin will downgrade in my opinion from being "worn out" taking such a long route. image

    Odds are infinitesimal that it would grade 63 from each service. image

    Better send a 64 (in your opinion ...image) if you want to guarantee a 63...image Cheers, RickO

    Wouldn't it be cool if all the grading companies would offer a sticker instead of re-slabbing.

    It would be like having passport stamps where you could see the coin's journey.

    It would also provide the history everyone wants.

    Ain't gonna happen. TPGs want better coins in THEIR slabs. Dealers carrying better coins and auction houses do not want buyers knowing that the fresh meat has been around the block umpteen times in the last 1-2 years.

    At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the COIN, not its slab or stickers. Which is precisely why collectors still need to be able to grade what they collect.

    I am excited to see the results, and even more excited that this crazy adventure is on Mr. Lafoe's dime.

    Chances even three of the four grading services will agree is quite a long shot. Better be sure to select a white coin.
    I collect Capped Bust series by variety in PCGS AU/MS grades.

    Have you ever conversed with Larry, he has absolutely nothing to do for the next few months, little projects like this entertain him. I would like to see the results and if you don't get it finished before you head out I can take over and complete "operation bored"
