I bought a high grade gem gold quarter eagle from a British seller on eBay back perhaps 8 years ago, and it too got hung up in US Customs (also...
Unfortunately, I think there are those out there for whom both are a good idea . . . :rolleyes:
It would surprise me greatly if there was anyone out there understood the term net grade to mean the grade BEFORE accounting for the problems....
