N284 Buchner Gold Coin Checklist Add?

[packs]

All I would expect the TPG to tell me is whether or not the card was skinned. It cannot possibly be deemed both authentic and not skinned, because Buchners were not issued blank backed. If a TPG determined the card IS skinned, I would be interested in knowing how that assessment was made, considering the card is not described by the OP as being thin.

I actually do think the OP described the card as thin. It may be worded incorrectly, but his Post #22 says the card is '50%' of the card weight. I took that mean 50% of the thickness of a regular card. Maybe he meant to say 50% 'more than' the weight of a standard card but the way it was worded indicates the opposite.

That was the one thing that stood out to me as different as the poster cuts I've seen/seen described, including mine, have been a thicker consistency. That said, I haven't seen a blank-backed poster cut in person, either, so can't speak to those.

I guess it could be read either way. I personally read it as meaning it was 50% thicker, but I can see how it could also be worded in such a way that it was thinner. I assumed thicker because the OP mentioned how the size was larger than it should be.

Got it - yeah, I'm not sure, either. I took it as the opposite but seems unclear.
