this said nil all about where he got his qualifications for graded coins came from. Must truly be out of the weet-bix packet.

Apcgs Australia I'm happy to start this off. We are Australian Professional Coin Grading Services. I started collecting coins at the age of 4 (mainly due to my grandmother introducing me to the industry). Worked in the coin industry as a dealer for over a decade. I don't collect coins/banknotes but I do collect Rolex watches and Marbles (only because I lost my marbles years ago)

It's OK Robbie, some ppl either don't get it or they are jealous. That's their problem.

Sorry, blame AJ... he brings out the worst in me. :angel:

Shanew from CCF is also a Shane Williams But he lives in a different State.
I am pretty sure that He has nothing to do with APCGS :good:

Is that the bloke who buys a lot of error coins?

Unicorn · March 31, 2014, 02:27:00 PM

That would be him Feathers.

The ones he doesn't buy he just finds in very unusual places! :laugh2:

I'm a bit wary of that. Do you remember on CCF, SW saying this " i am looking for a new company to invest in", then going on to talk about grading etc. He was responding to a statement by CCF member, blackmamba010, now as we can see by what SteveQld posted, a SW just happens to be both:
Registrant Contact Name: Shane Williams
Tech Contact Name: Shane Williams

yet shanew on CCF denies flatly that it is him, but like I said, I'm not so sure about that. It's a pretty BIG coincidence IYKWIM.

P4, 3rd post from the bottom.
http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=131879&whichpage=4&SearchTerms=invest

I think there's more to this story than has surfaced so far and I'm fairly inclined to NOT believe too much that SW says, based on some of his previous CCF statements.

glad I'm not the only one that thinks this is all a bit suss

Sorry, blame AJ... he brings out the worst in me.

:blush2: why shucks, you give me far to much credit Fulvio..you know it's all BS and porky pies but it's ok because I have broard shoulder to carry you

Now I know why his grading is soooo bad.
