my missus knows everything I buy or sell
I just have to justify my transactions if pushed and I pushed it a bit on this one, "who pays $90 for a 2 cent coin?"


I paid $1400 but it's missing the 'SD'

Coin Chit Chat / RE: is APCGS the baddy?

Well said Rob but, if you buy the unpainted Coronation coin (whether or not it's in a slab), believing it to be an error coin, you'll be out of pocket for a fake error. IYKWIM

And apcgs is more or less certifying that the unpainted Coronation coin in his slab, is genuine.  
I wrote to the mint and asked them whether they thought it possibly it got out of the mint unpainted, and although they are of the opinion it's more likely to have been tampered with, they didn't say it was a definite error or not.
So this guy is slabbing them and saying it is. Oh well, you can't tell these ppl.  They think it's great getting them slabbed cheap.

I made the effort and took the time to accumulate a few high grade incused 50 cent coins Then submitted them to PCGS.
I had a couple of successful sales and now these scumbags are using my efforts to promote yet another grossly overgaded coin :dash1:

Quotehas any one written to the mint asking their opinion on all these fake errors and fake coin being slabbed by this mob?
It has nothing to do with the mint.

It does if they are altering or defacing the coin in any way.

Quote from: 'Basil' pid='46194' dateline='1397006457'There has been at least one(i've been told 2) of NGC fake slabbed 23's slip thru.I can't find the thread on CC but i think a member there spotted it up for Auction.

At least with NGC there is a guarantee and they will "Make Good" on a grading mistake.
I vary much doubt that that would be the case with APCGS :ok:

The only guarantee you get on APCGS slab is, that it was graded and slabbed by APCGS.  I doubt that would get you
any refund unfortunitely

has any one written to the mint asking their opinion on all these fake errors and fake coin being slabbed by this mob?

Australian Pre-Decimal Coins / RE: Gem unc?

have a close look at the tip of the King's nose (chatter), the outer ear (chatter) and the eye brow (flattened & worn looking)
all 3 should be perfectly formed without all that surface chatter for a GEM
All of the beads within the centre crown on the reverse have flattening to them - usually a sign of circulation wear as well
The cross on the Orb on the top of the inner crown is also damaged with chatter (not soft strike lack of detail)
this was a very well struck crown but has been down to the pub and through the landlords' grubby hands more than a few times

Thanks Robbie.  I knew it couldn't possible be gem unc.  not even unc.  And yep very worn. I hope no one buys it but I just had to post it here.
