Dont read this if you have not slabbed a cgs coin
PWA 1967 replied to PWA 1967's topic in TPG Discussions
Thanks Matt. Its not a scarce date but was in a pretty good condition IMO. The bigger pictures always tell you the truth. Was still not sure about the rejection,but thats what i paid for and dont have a problem. I am know expert and some i dont send as the faults are obvious and not worth paying the money for. Any rejections i would be interested in that are not obvious. Pete. -

Thought i would reply as only my opinion. I Have 213 pennies that are slabbed CGS/NGC/PCGS/ANACS. I Have checked them before buying/slabbing and bought some slabbed already after checking the attribution. I dont sell any and my collection will only surface in about 18 years i.e. i put them away and happy with the fact that they are not gathering dust. Why would anyone do this.......well thats up to me and the 3K i have spent on slabbing means i have returned numerous coins that were not as sold . This in some instances has upset the dealer but not being an expert happy with the independent opinion. I am happy with the attribution of all of them............and the fact they appear problem free. Two coins alone cost me £3K but got my money back as had problems. I have numerous American slabs not attributed correctly ,a nice 1911 gouby X, an unc 1858 F/B ,1903 open 3 ,1841 Tail 8 etc. Everyone to there own but your question was left wide open for an answer................Its up to me . I am not an expert and like an independent opinion ... my mates think i am daft ....dont have any mates that collect coins....£13-25 a coin is not alot to spend. Pete.

An unusual 1860 Copper Penny
PWA 1967 replied to Coppers's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It was worth about £1k without anyone mentioning it but now its been on here could bring closer to £1700. Its right and again missed by the auctioneer but i gaurantee the estimate and description will change -

Yes its working george............Is that a Rhino coin

Not sure if it will put me off ............We all have different reasons for someone giving an opinion and i am happy with the service they have provided. But as always interested to read your forthcoming post. Please remember its an open forum and therefore dont think everyone will clap hands and i suggest you think first before you post as only fair. Easy to say negatives and unfortunately we dont say hat off enough Easy to find faults with most people (myself included) sometimes worth giving them the chance to reply rather than SHOUT. Dont know what your comments will be but enjoy Christmas and all the best. Pete.

Honesty or knowledge
PWA 1967 replied to PWA 1967's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Obviously with them being so scarce, you're lucky to get a halfway reasonable one. What are yours like then, Pete? Rang tang ....one c.g.s. slabbed and another thats not much better -
I have spotted over the last couple of years varieties of pennies that were not described as such on ebay. Sorry wasnt sure weather to post as a new topic / more pennies. The seller has been informed that the coin they have listed is scarce/rare (sometimes by a forum member). I think in the cases i have noted the person has one already ,infact i know. Question.......... Would you tell the seller or not ?. I have been watching pennies and all of a sudden the price has gone up considerably. After looking at information added on EBAY they have been informed its RARE. This can be frustrating after having the coin in my watch list for a few days. Alternatively if you DIDNT have one would you be as quick to SHOUT. Opinions please as wondered weather its right or wrong ?. This i appreciate happens in auction house descriptions but slightly different . Pete.
