Isn't it pretty obvious that TPGs should be non-profit organzations, and not...

What it means is that many individuals in the numismatic community may invest in the shares of a TPG. The major players are as well as the public at large are looking to make profits from the stock prices. Sounds very above board to me.

 

What I find interesting is the innuendo in David Hall's statement. Exactlly what is his point?

 

"But I don't think everyone knows that the world's largest coin dealer owns 30% of a major grading service."

 

Care to disclose your ownship roster, David? What's the problem? Heritage doesn't want to buy Collectors Universe stock?

 

Weak and self serving post homerunhall.

I also don't think everyone knows who submits the coins that end up in "David Hall Rare Coins" inventory, but is anybody asking? I thought it was pretty common knowledge that Heritage owns a sizable stake in NGC. How much NGC stock does David Hall own ?

It always irritates the heck out of me when a competitor makes implications like this suggesting that the public draw their own conclusions from it. Isn't this typical of a shyster who tries to make his own product look good by putting down the competition? Please don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that HRH is a shyster. I'm sure he is a wonderful human being, but you can draw your own conclusions from it.
