Thank you

The price guides are definitely all over the place,  some say $30 or $32 for a softpack in some of the years, that is below what dealers are getting for bullion coins and others are way out of sight

I have a 1882 O GSA soft pack and am trying to find the census for that coin in the soft pack in that grade and how many are higher.

I know if I have a NGC certified soft pack I get to see the value and the census of the coin, as I did for my 1882 O GSA soft pack in MS 63 but how do I find that info on coins I don't own or haven't sent in yet or am about to bid on?

That agrees with what my dealer friend was saying that NGC is grading tougher

forgot to subscribe to the thread

I agree with Coinbuf both about resurrecting an old thread but more about allowing PCGS coins but not counting them towards points.

At the same time I have a dealer who sent a bunch of Morgans to NGC and was complaining that they all came back one grade lower than expected.  MS 64 instead of 65 etc.  He had been using PCGS and sent these to NGC.  I looked at them and agree with the NGC grading, of course I am looking at them as a buyer and not a seller and that makes a difference.

Are coins with a permanent stamp of "COPY" a replica or a counterfeit?
