    Almost all of the key date coins are problem coins in PCI/SEGS slabs. Anybody want to guess how many will sell? My guess is zero!

    Those coins, and that seller, scare the [edited] out of me. I have seen some of those time and time again. He does have a few sales, but the prices reflect the coins are nowhere near their alleged grade as hyped in the ebay titles.
    I brake for ear bars.
  • Agreed - this guy deals a lot in off brand stuff - including ACG - now he's got lots of high dollar coins in PCI and SEGS holders - hmmm - I smell a rat.

    Watch out for this guy (yes, anita is a guy). He's known for buying coins on Ebay (some PCGS/NGC/ANACS) and getting them reslabbed by the bottom feeders at much higher grades. Also deals with problem coins.
  • C'Mon now guys give this guy a break! What if you were named Anita?
    I don't know why he would do this everyone on Ebay discounts PCI coins one or two grades anyway and the 09S VDB is NGC, the 07HR $20 is PCGS, and the Gobrecht is ANACS?
  • Yeah well - even if deeply discounted - if these coins have problems - they wouldn't even make it two grades below where they're graded right now. Yes I see that there are 1 PCGS, 1 NGC and 2 ANACS coins, but the rest I would be really leery of. And besides, why sell them on Ebay - everyone knows that coins like this, if truly problem free, would find easy access to the market. Coins of this caliber go on here for two reasons - if they're good ones, for advertisement, if they're bad ones, to find a sucker.
  • hmm...a seller with a history of selling cleaned coins lists key dates housed in 3rd rate company holders...image

    Oh yes, Anitacoin, selling [allegedly] five figure coins, but too cheap to pay the extra 15 cents to include a picture of the REVERSE in the auction!

    I saw that post this morning about the two Au-93-s $ that went up on auction. These are problem coins in third rate holders, and not worth the big money. In fact, this seller likes to submit coins to PCGS and knows that they sell better in them. These wont holder by the big three or they would have been submitted.

    Here's a real Au-50 93-s!

    Well, I do like his PCGS G-06 1795 small eagle $5 gold. Now that is a cool coin. It is just a little over 10 times what I can afford for a coin, but cool never-the-less.

    1889-CC often comes in P-L when they are Mint State. This one might be P-L, but you would not know from the picture.

    I'd be interested in the 1795 half eagle, but it's got a big black spot at 12 o'clock. That could be a tell-tale sign of solder. And what's this stuff about not showing the reverses? Is he too cheap to spend 15 cents for an extra photo for coins that sell for 5-figure prices?

    There is something rotten here, and I've seen first hand what some of the coins in these stink-o brand holders look like. image

    anita coin is a well-known overgrade / scam artist. lookout for "her" repaired coins as well - repairs are coincidentally not mentioned in auction descriptions....

    So buy a book and learn more about them plus a lot more companies you've probably never heard of. image

    INS is an old company. Started in 1975 and was last known to be active in 1997. It may still be out there and I just haven't seen anything more recent. INS was almost always a low profile company. They're first holders are very tough to find. I have two and have seen two others. Their last from 1997 is also extremely tough. I have seen two, both with five figure coins in them. Needless to say I am still in the market for one of those holders.
