Re: Wouldn't you like PCGS to offer a meaningful AUTHENTICITY guarantee?
I have taken advantage of thier gurantee several times and they made it right every time. No complaints at all. The only issue is it usually takes a month or so to see any results. For me what happed is that silver coins sometimes go bad with milk spots or AT after they are slabbed. They take care of it without questions. -
Does PCGS still guarantee their grades on graded bullion coins?
I know that PCGS quit guaranteeing grades on the Silver Eagles that milk-spotted some time ago. I have some graded Gold Eagles that have developed fugly toning since graded, though. Does anyone know if PCGS still guarantees the grade for those? Thanks! -
Re: Prez Dollar Spotting!!
sorry i've none to look at but yours...maybe more will chime who do hold these. makes me think if this is a developing problem and pcgs ends up buying a bunch of these back like milk spots on eagles they may change position and just stop grading anything new out of the mint..except gold... -
Re: The proper way to act on the Coin Forum
With respect to number three. I'm not certain I know how to clean up milk spots. Perhaps we need to dig deeper on this one. You forgot about the part where one always salutes a member entering the forum with a higher posting count. Formalities of rank are important for the corps to function correctly. -

DIGS O' THE DAY (2010-03-07): A MILE DOWN BLADEN ROAD
DIGS O' THE DAY (2010-03-07): A MILE DOWN BLADEN ROAD We'd just returned from an overnight trip down to Jacksonville, Florida, and the afternoon found me a little tired and sleepy. I knew I'd only end up napping if I stayed around the house, so I decided to initiate my "walk a mile a day" plan. As mentioned in the previous… -
Re: How to clean coins?
A 50:50 jewel luster and distilled water solution followed by several alcohol dips then using a compressed air source to blow off the final rinse usually works. I always used to get some milk spots that would develope after a period of time using this method. Russ is the dip master... ask him. -
Re: Sometimes this hobby cracks me up as do some collectors.. AGE vs ASE.
<< <i> << <i>but PCGS-70 08/07s are pretty scarce. . . Just a thought. >> Exactly...with only 169 graded FS 70 ... (10% of the total FS) >> I sure don't expect AGE's to get milk spots.. I know and have heard multi ASE's are getting spots, this could be the low pop cause. Also one other thing, many people don't submit a ASE… -
Re: POLL Is buying gold and silver for way under melt a crime?
Now that the forum is creating federal legislation on coin crime, I have a few points. Dealer A is in the big city. He/she buys bullion for spot and sells for 5% over spot. No crime here, right? Dealer B is in a smaller city, but big enough. He/she buys bullion for 5% under spot and sells for 10% over spot. Possible crime… -
Re: Free shot at an Accented Hair on eBay.
<< <i>Just what is the premium on a non-cam AH? >> It is very condition dependent. A high percentage - much higher than the regular - are doggie POS coins. Many are milk spotted, and many more that are spot-free suffer from obverse hairlining. Nice ones grading PR66 or better do bring a premium. For raw ones a true PR66…
