It would be nice if someone from this service would come on here and talk to us. I was really impressed when this thread happened. A similar situation, and an employee was gracious to come on here and respond specifically to our members.

The difference is, the principal involved in this effort is someone who is known and rather reviled in numismatics. I'm not sure his appearing here would be smart.

They need to see their editor. Their designations have apparently changed several times and the titles don't match the bodies in some places. :-)
(See EXFS = "Exceptional Full Strike" in the titles, but "Exceptional First Strike" in the body. :-) )

Guess who's giving a lecture about M.A.C. at the ANA Portland Money Show tomorrow? The man himself. It's at 1pm. I think I might have to attend.

It's pretty much what everyone thinks it is . He's quite the scallywag. Spent a lot of time telling us how he got scammed out the money for his invention, "The Slab". And also how this is now his 2nd chance to " revolutionize " the market. He also gave us a tip on the next great rarity, shhhh, it's a secret. I did get a free NGC MS68 2006 D SMS North Dakota quarter with MAC sticker out of it. I think there might have been 7 people in the room. Oh, also David Lisot of CoinWeek got it all on video so perhaps a summary will post on their web sight soon.

I stumbled upon a sticker'd coin on ebay today. I find the whole idea sort of strange, but I am knew to collecting, so my opinion might change. Anyways, I most interested in raw, so not a pressing issue. I just thought I would comment on how this struck me - odd. Also, I visited the website for the company. The page called the The LLC story links to an Amazon page selling Mac cables instead of " an invaluable tool for ascertaining the most accurate cetified coin price in the market today." Oooops. Might wanna change that one. ebay listing with distracting sticker placed askew
