What makes a top set?

Is it pictures and descriptions or is it the grades of the coins in the set? Does my perfect set of Sac proofs..all Pr70UC..deserve to be listed as inferior to other sets containing the same grade coins just because I'm a lousy Photographer...or is the quality of the set to be determined by the editorial skill of the owner? Just a thought.

ANACS, James Taylor letter update

Received a telephone call from Mr. Taylor hisself I received a call from James Taylor last night. Apoligizing to me for the shoddy treatment that I had received from ANACS. He has made some promises and asked for another chance, to prove that changes are going to be made at ANACS. He is going to refund the overcharges made, and has made an offer for the lack of timely processing of my orders. He had been out of town for the week and had just seen my email. and called imediatly. He seemed

letter to James Taylor @ ANNACS

Services charged for but not delievered....twice I just sent this to Mr. Taylor.....was I being too harsh? I must say that I am vastly disappointed with your guiding philosophy for your new company image. Twice I have submitted coins for grading and had them take three times as long as advertised. And twice I have paid for a requested service and not received that service. If your going to advertise and charge for email/fax notification of grades, you should at least follow thru and pro

First Strike Buffalo from the Mint

I missed something please explain the reason you can state that the Mint Buffalo $50 proof is a First Strike. Does the accompaning paperwork state this? And excactly what are the requirments for the strike to be considered First Strike? Is it the accual first strike on a set of dies? And only that strike. Or is it the first 100 or 1000 strikes on a set of dies. Inquiring minds want to know.....at least I do dean shelton silver dollar

NGC's definition of QC

or it could be..... I once asked NGC why my coins were hung up in QC so long and this is the answer I got.....that term covers a lot of different actions..actual QC...a review of the paper inserts to verify they match....and the actual encapsulation of the coins...and prep for shipping....at least that's what they told me

As I started this all, I'll stir the pot some more

Closed society? Nope, it's open to all who....Barbed wire? nothing bad about that number one...all you closed society types need to revisit the definition of a society...a group of people with a common purpose who band together, make rules to govern their group and promise to live by those rules. those that are not willing to abide by the rules of the society are no longer members of that group and are normally called criminals. IF YOU WANT TO BELONG, THEN FOLLOW THE RULES. OTHERWISE WE H

Well, that's it for me...I'm done

I thought that we had settled this buy/sell issue...but with 150+ views on two for sale entries (pure for sale ads)...I guess that this has turned into an advertising venue and if that was what I personally wanted I would join the boards...been nice knowing most of you...and good luck and good night

PF68...PF69....PF70

After all we are talking about Moderns here My three cents worth (inflation don't u know) As a collector of Moderns coins..Sac's...SBA's....IKE's...and Memorial Cents, I do try to get the highest avalable grade...especially now when they're still cheap...If you project these coins out 50 to a hundred years..(when they will start to become hard to find?) will we still view that poor little pf68 as a throwaway or will some of the new collectors to our hobby be more that happy to get that coin a

NGC vs PCGS prices

the one true consumer driven market the numismactic field is one of if not the only truly consumer driven markets in fact. no matter what value a person puts on a coin, if there's not a consumer out there willing to pay that price, then the coin isn't worth that price. and as long as there are customers willing to pay the inflated price to get that PCGS slab...we will have the differential between the two. possible part of this is due to the snobbish attitude of PCGS that only allows their

Susan B's coming into their own

the public has discovered the SBA's as a great set to collect and the price of SBA's are going up almost across the board. And some of the higher grades are becoing hard to find. Witness the 81-s and 99-d in higher grade MS. Makes me happy, as I love this series. I don't have the pictures of my set posted yet...but I will dean silver dollar

NEW ANACS ????????

NOT AS GOOD AS THE OLD ONE I am very disappointed in the NEW ANACS of Mr. Taylor. I sent in 5 coins to be graded economy (21 days) rcvd by them on the 3rd of Jan. around the 1st of Feb. I called to check and see how they were doing...thus started a period of no answers and lies, that is worse than another of the grading parties (unnamed) I was told that the coins were still in pri-grading on the 7th of Feb. and then received assurances (five times) that someone would check on them and call

Re: 79 SBA Wide Rims

pop report is misleading The NGC Pop Report is I believe misleading in the case of the 1979 Wide Rim SBA as opposed to the Narrow Rim...the number of submissions for the two are heavily weighted towards the Wide Rim as they carry the premium...and as the other report that the wide rims compose about 45% of the totals....boy do I have a hard time with that one...having gone thru over $1400 of 79 SBA's and having only found 11...that don't seem to be 45% dean shelton silver dollar coins
