Nah, there's a heirarchy. Coin collectors look down on us because we collect cards. We look down on TCG collectors because they collect cards of fictional characters, and everyone looks down on toy collectors because they are so immature.

No wonder I'm down so often...I've collected all of those and sort of still do.

I can state conclusively that I absolutely, positively do NOT have Starting Lineup figurines of Stan Musial, Bob Gibson, Johnny Unitas and Joe Louis on a shelf at my office, and have never, ever played with them. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Just chiming in to say that I'm one of the suckers who bit the bullet and recently submitted PX7 Domino Discs to PSA at $75 a pop. I don't expect them to receive exceptionally high grades, but it was important to me to protect and preserve these. I tried round coin holders with foam inserts, but found that the discs were between sizes and moved around in the holders.
My first choice would have been SGC (with Beckett a distant second), but SGC and Beckett both confirmed that they would not encapsulate these discs. So I begrudgingly went with PSA. |

These would be a good way to go, and come in a lot of sizes in 1mm increments.
https://www.lighthouse.us/square-coi...s-quadrum.html They also make a version that prevents corrosion on coins, but I don't know how it would affect the ink. |

It seems that 4SC has a large fresh batch of graded 1971 Topps Coins. Maybe they aren't recently graded but sure looks that way to me.
I wonder what their rate is / was? It's kind of frustrating competing against this. I'm holding a fair amount of high-grade coins but they are worthless at a $75 grading fee. No one pays mint prices for ungraded coins.

This was from the REA listing description: Quote:
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The PSA grades were: Baker - PSA 3 VG *Consistent w/REA* Bender - PSA 5 EX *High end of REA* Bresnahan - PSA 2 GD *Consistent w/REA* Brown - PSA 2 GD *Low end of REA* Collins - PSA 1 PR *Two grades below REA* Griffith - PSA 4 VG-EX *Low end of REA* Lajoie - PSA 2 GD *Consistent w/REA* Marquard - PSA 4 VG-EX *Consistent w/REA* Mathewson - PSA 2 GD *One grade below REA* McGraw - PSA 2 GD *One grade below REA* Speaker - PSA 2(MK) *At least one grade below REA* Walsh - PSA 6 EX-MT *High end of REA* Young - PSA 2 GD *One grade below REA* To summarize: REA's eyeball test was reasonably close to the PSA grade for 8 of the 13 discs. REA overestimated the condition for 5 of the 13 pieces, and overshot PSA by a wide margin on the Collins and Speaker. |
