I need my Marty or Russ "got grades" fix!

It has been a while since I have seen grades posted and I have to keep faith that awesome grades can be had. Without proof that it can be done how can I go on pursuing the dream of one day making such grades.image

    Don't count on anything awesome from me. All the submissions I have in right now are just junk from the few crumbs Marty has left on the table.

    Haven't been checking the darkside lately have you? Marty has made some very nice grades over there lately ... 'course then I had to go and post some submission results and drew my first "You Suck". Ifn y'all interested ... check 9036105 and 9036108 ...

    Can I play? I just got my x-over results back from ANACS.

    01 PCGS MS69 1983-D OLYMPIC $1 --> DNC
    02 PCGS MS69 1983-D OLYMPIC $1 --> DNC
    03 PCGS MS69 1991-D MT RUSHMORE 50C --> ANACS MS69
    04 PCGS MS69 1991-D MT RUSHMORE 50C --> DNC
    05 PCGS MS69 1991-D MT RUSHMORE 50C --> DNC
    06 PCGS MS69 1991-D MT RUSHMORE 50C --> DNC
    07 PCGS MS69 1991-D MT RUSHMORE 50C --> DNC
    08 PCGS MS69 1994-D WORLD CUP $1 --> ANACS MS69
    09 PCGS MS69 1994-D WORLD CUP $1 --> ANACS MS69
    10 PCGS MS69 1994-D WORLD CUP $1 --> ANACS MS69
    11 PCGS MS69 1994-D WORLD CUP $1 --> DNC

    4 out of 11 -- not so bad, I suppose. I got the Rushmore; only took 9 attempts. The collection inches two coins closer to completion...

    How about grades from across the street...

    1971-S 1c NGC PR67 RD
    1999-P 5c NGC MS65 6FS
    1996-D 5c NGC MS67 6FS
    1971-S 5c NGC PR67*
    1971-S 10c NGC PR69 Cameo
    2000-D 10c NGC MS68
    1971-S 25c NGC PR68*

    If NGC is across the street, where's ANACS?

    Down the road? Around the corner? image
  • flaminioflaminio Posts: 5,664 ✭✭✭


    << <i>Only four out of ten PCGS crossed at ANACS?!!! Wow! image >>

    Nope. Four out of eleven.

    << <i>ANACS is tougher on moderns than even PCGS. >>

    Which should make my set especially impressive. 'Cept no one really cares about ANACS certs...

    I like "around the corner". It fits.

    Since ANACS is smaller than PCGS and NGC, it reminds me of "The Little Shop Around the Corner" from the movie, You've Got Mail.

    Larry, I was pleased with these and was actually surprised with the two 65's. I expected 62's and 63's but then I couldn't grade anything to save my life! image
