Spence Moderator United States 34413 Posts	Posted 05/17/2022 11:21 pm @diamond, there are only a small number of legit grading devices that we recommend here and I don't think that ACGS is one of them. It might be these same folks: http://goccf.com/t/253096&whichpage=2#2133522 "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16831 Posts	Posted 05/18/2022 09:29 am These basement slabbers never put actual, high-quality coins in their slabs. If the people who ran this basement-slabbing operation ever happened to find a raw, high-quality coin, you know what they'd do with it? They certainly wouldn't put it in one of their el-cheapo slabs. They'd send it off to a real slabbing company, so they could get some real money for it. The coins trapped in basement slabs are always cleaned, overgraded, mis-identified, damaged or otherwise have problems that no genuine TPG would accept for the grade. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 05/27/2022 02:05 am Impossible to tell from that photo but since it's a basement slabber probably an AU details coin that they slap in a holder with an "MS-65" label. Report this Post to the Staff
