Re: Which Auction Company Do You Trust ?
I trust Heritage to execute my bids. I have had only good experiences with them for nearly 15 years. The only funny business, and this is the case with all the auction companies (read the terms and conditions) is that the auction company can (1) bid on coins against you (and they don't have to pay the net buyer's fees) and… -

Re: NGC slabbed by Blackstone
I acknowledge this is simplistic thought but sometimes it's best to start simple. I don't think Blackstone bought NGC to start collecting Reales but I do think it's at least fun to ponder why they actually did buy them. They must have seen value in the company. The question is: Where did they see the value? Is it already… -
Shop at Home TV is folding

Is this the one that sells coins? They all look the same to me. The long-struggling Shop At Home Network, the television broadcast filmed in Nashville, is going dark. The E.W. Scripps Co., which began investing in the network four years ago, announced this morning it would cease operations for both the television… -
Re: Tale of two grading services--PCGS vs. NGC
The delay at PCGS and/or perhaps others, so I hear, has nothing to do with "grading quality improvements" or "getting it right" or "shortage of graders".

Besides, this stuff regarding labels based on physical… -

Now what would really be interesting to me would be a set of statistically significant tests measuring the consistency of grading from the same service. And then comparing the accuracy between companies. Then an analysis of the services on the same coins according to ANA standards. For mint state, since there are no exact… -
Re: David Sklow dumped by ANA
I copied and pasted most of the entire ANA Federal Charter, Bylaws and Code of Ethics here: By the way, I can't seem to copy past page 12 of 15 of the Charter, bylaws and code of ethics. Perhaps some else can do a better job of copying and pasting the whole thing in a more readable fashion so I can delete my post here! I…
