Is it even TPG when the same company that graded it is selling it? Shouldn't it be second party grading?

The seller did say there was "slight rim damage" but for some
reason I can't tell

then again, maybe the foam is cut to perfectly match the "slight rim damage"


I was going to say the exact same thing

So does "very detailed" mean scrubbed with a brillo pad?

With SGS (Abon Coin) out of business perhaps there is some basement slabber market share up for grabs.

At least there isn't one lie on the slab


Seriously? Because the Three Cent Silver coin is NOT 90% silver, it is 75% Silver 25% Copper. So yes there is a lie on the slab.

However rest assured from their website they are 3 soldiers serving this country that love coins, so I see from that statement they are certainly qualified to grade and authenticate the coins they do, part-time, since their soldiering the rest of the time. (Quote) "specializing in interesting coins from ancient & medieval times to shipwreck and colonial times."

Only the hardest types of coins to authenticate and grade.

Ok, sheeeeh, my bad. Sorry. My only point being was that they weren't making any outlandish claim about the grade.


When a basement slabber has to give a coin a details grade and not an MS70 you should run twice as fast.

Come on guys, you are being a little harsh. What's not to love

* A blind domain registration
* (bonus points: through GoDaddy)
* A TN cell phone # listing a KY address (gotta love dem good ole boys)
* A website created through a VistaPrint template and not willing to pay the extra $10 or whatever to remove the VistaPrint logo
* but at least they paid for the premium website package
