OK, Hall - you and me - the rumble at FUN. My $1,000 against your $5,000. 40 coins. Smoke. Sweat. Nervous tics.
Be there, aloha!
PS.... after I dust ya, the money goes to charity.

(So long as the charity is reasonably politically correct
The Judge: (holding up coin) Gentlemen! What does this coin grade?
Homerunhall: (scrunching up his face) Ummm... I dunno.
Tradedollarnut: (blank stare) ...me neither.
Judge: What denomination is it?
Homerunhall: (scrunching up face) Ummm... I dunno.
Tradedollarnut: (blank stare) ...me neither.
Judge: (frustrated) Is it gold or silver?
Homerunhall: (scrunching up face) Ummm... I dunno.
Tradedollarnut: (blank stare) ...me neither.
Judge: (defeated) Do either of you know where you are?

<< <i>I will not be at FUN show, but can do it at either upcoming Long Beach shows or ANA >>
TDN and others - I'm sure it only APPEARS that Mr. Hall is (already) stalling.

Not at FUN? Harumph - obviously not from North of the Mason Dixon line!
Is coinguy1 going to be in charge of selecting the coins? You can't use the same 40 coins that the regular grading challenge will be using.
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
and it sets us apart from practitioners and consultants. Gregor
No, because David has handpicked those coins - I would assume he's seen the grades!
Which one of you will be wearing the black hat and which of you will be wearing the white hat?
Hats? Hats? We don't need no stinkin' hats!
Lets have this showdown in Portland since there is no other contest going on there
Works for me.
We're we betting money, dinners, or Trade dollars?
Hmmmm - one downgrade vs five upgrades?

DHeath, apparently, he doesn't, as it most assuredly WONT be Ikes.

Capped Bust Halves. For good measure, don't forget a few Buffalo nickels minted in San Francisco
from the early to mid 1920s in the MS 20 - MS 50 range. Add some PF Liberty Nickels with ugly toning.
And of course, we must not forget copper. Include a few Large & Half Cents that are Unc. with
between 15-30% original mint red. Don't forget a few others that are Uncs., but with a spot or two.
Just to make it 'interesting,' include several 3 cent silver pieces.
Of course, you're not going to use a loop to grade these coins, are you?
Buen Provecho
