   russ, would that not be a case of a coin being dipped, slabbed, and then going bad after the fact? i do not think PCGS would grade it like that. did they? edited to add: for some reason i think russ was testing me

   Oh, and it frequently isn't just "slightly" less. For example, this $65 pickoff would have been $350 in a PCGS holder. Russ, NCNE

   Here's a nice PCGS PR67CAM graded coin: Of course, it's artificially frosted. Here's another nice PCGS PR67CAM graded coin: OOPS! That one is also artificially frosted. Russ, NCNE

    What was the origianal question? Oh, I remeber now! You're asking a guy who crosses a ton of NGC coins to PCGS and makes obscene profits. Yeah, he feels confident. Russ, I know what's obscene but how many are tons?
