    Vicky who was it that initially raised the concern on the other forum, I thought you mentioned here that it was Mr Hill from Baldwims, if that's the case then he may be interested in helping this along if he had the coin, surely then if someone of his stature in the coin community were to write a note to say it was a fake then Heritage and NGC would have no leg to stand on.

    Wreath, where are you based, if London, there are many dealers that might take a look at it, but i think ideally you're going to need confirmation that it is a fake from someone of note, aka Baldwins or Spink etc etc and obviously they can't free it, but i'm sure Heritage would possibly take it back it there was some sort of accompanying letter as to the authenticity issue.

    CGS "membership" Fee

    azda replied to Sword's topic in TPG Discussions

    Non, you've probably submitted at the worst point. I sent one last year with the fee of £13.whatever plus postage to be deducted due to what it cost me, Semra deducted the higher fee and when I emailed to ask why I got no response what so ever. If I were you i'd perhaps try and get in contact to make sure that your submissions will be taken at the previous level before the hike.

    Trying to find as many link to the referencing of 1934 fake wreaths, the one just below was a discussion on here about them, just click on the name 1934 crown https://www.cointalk.com/threads/beware-fakes-seem-to-be-in-abundance.278357/ how to spot a fake 1934 wreath crown

    My first batch of coins to CGS

    azda replied to Nonmortuus's topic in TPG Discussions

    I'll come back to this but I'd be checking what they might be about to charge you for their service

    CGS "membership" Fee

    azda replied to Sword's topic in TPG Discussions

    The unfortunate thing is Alan that PCGS don't know all the errors or variants of the British coinage, that was the reason I sent my F260A, but I definately won't send anything else

    CGS "membership" Fee

    azda replied to Sword's topic in TPG Discussions

    So what's the deal with those who were already members Paul? Are they asking everyone for cash or just newbies who thought about joining but won't due to the fee?

    azda replied to Sword's topic in TPG Discussions

    Sorry but they have lost the plot completely, £500 for their service, NOOOOO THNAKS
  16. azda
    Yes, to Heritage who sold it to you, they'd then contact the consignor
  17. azda
    The problem is, if you break it out and it is fake you'd not get a penny back
  18. azda
    Ok, reputable for American coins but could they spot a fake 34 wreath in a slab. To be honest i'm not sure they'd give it a 2nd glance if it was slabbed when sold because NGC guarantee authenticity, so Heritage would just describe it. I'm sure someone on here bought a cromwell from there that was suspect, the thread will be kicking around somewhere
  19. azda
    Which auction house was it bought from, can you all tell us the UIN
  20. azda
    Hi, there, have you firstly checked the UIN number against the grading companys to see if its the same coin? By same coin, i mean the exact same as what you see in the holder, the Chinese are also now faking slabs

    CGS valuations

    azda replied to mrbadexample's topic in TPG Discussions

    I can't get on there from home as it appears that they have some issues with German IPs, funnily enough i have been on with my iPhone with vodafone, so not sure what the issue is there, but can't be arsed scrolling through all that with such a small screen might send this,

    CGS "membership" Fee

    azda replied to Sword's topic in TPG Discussions

    I think Semra now thinks that CGS are now getting on par with the big 2 American companies judging by the fee, i can see a big custard pie running down her face, a small increase in submissions won't justify the £99, what will happen if/when submissions drop after the introduction? (custard pie :-) Whoever came up with this business strategy needs to take a reality check.....

    CGS "membership" Fee

    azda replied to Sword's topic in TPG Discussions

    Ahhhh but those 4 free grades Rob still makes it cheaper than CGS, they also don't have Semra as their customer care manager, that has to add to the bonuses of non CGS membership

    CGS valuations

    azda replied to mrbadexample's topic in TPG Discussions

    For arguments sake Paul, looking at the very bottom florin, does CGS have any graded at 82 or 85, makes you wonder where they get the 2016 price from in 85

    CGS valuations

    azda replied to mrbadexample's topic in TPG Discussions

    The proof is in the pudding, maybe check the Londoncoins upcoming auction and see if there is any CGS slabs up for sale, see what their estimate is and then check their website for valuation, both should in theory match, then wait until the realised prices come out and see what you get......
