It said it was graded by the Gallery Grading Company, which I have never heard of so I'm a little skeptical about it. I can probably already guess that it isn't a true MS-67 unless PCGS or NGC says so, but what do you guys think is the value of this dime, even if its not quite MS-67? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1 When I get the coin I'll put up better pictures if the debate is still going on. Thanks for any input/ideas/suggestions.   05-03-2005, 12:37 AM   #2 (permalink) peachymargarita Baruch HaShem     Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Parker Colorado Posts: 351 well my two cents would be if something is advertised as fb i would want to see the reverse. and the value of $2150, are we missing a decimal point? still not a bad price if it is in the ms 64-65 range. but like i said that is just my opinion. because can you really trust opinions of people who grew up in a state where the sun never sets and we wear moose nuggets a jewelry? last frontier laughs, michael   05-03-2005, 07:55 AM   #3 (permalink) Speedy Researching Coins     Join Date: Mar 2004 Posts: 11,786 My Mood: Well--I say you might get a coin for your set but it is NO way graded that...if you can post better photos of both sides it would help.

Lack luster pictures, no reverse. "Valued at $XXXX" is always a big red flag too.   05-03-2005, 04:20 PM   #6 (permalink) sledneck Junior Member   Join Date: Apr 2005 Posts: 19 Thanks for the input guys. In retrospect I pretty much agree with you, I found this coin when it had like 3 minutes left and it was at 1.80, so I did some fast looking around the net and decided it was worth at least a 6-8 bucks. Didn't notice the required shipping insurance when I bid but I did note the $4.75....ridiculous. I bet I could resell that coin on ebay for more....   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk? Coin Talk Code of Honor 1.
