<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 3606003, member: 100459&quot;]I have read some of the inputs, but I thought I could do better by asking a direct question about one of my gold coins.&nbsp; I bought a 1904 Liberty Head Double Eagle from a &quot;reputable dealer&quot;.&nbsp; It was my first gold coin purchase. I didn&#039;t know anything about TPG.&nbsp; I was told by a friend that I needed to have it &quot;graded&quot;. I bought 2 other gold coins from this dealer. One was not graded which was an 1895 $10 Liberty and the other was the 2009 Ultra High Relief $20 Gold Coin, graded by PCGS, MS68.&nbsp; The $10 Liberty was graded by NGC, MS61.&nbsp; I got the 1904 Liberty $20 for $1,300, the 1895 for about $900, and the 2009 Ultra High Relief Gold Coin for $1,300.&nbsp; The Dealer took the 1904 and the 1895 with him to a show because he said he would be able to get it graded cheaper, which I checked it out and he did save me money.&nbsp; The 1904 came back from the &quot;coin show&quot; UNC-Details-Obverse Scratched. I contacted NGC to find out a little bit more of why, and they would not give me any information. They didn&#039;t even say anything about the reverse.&nbsp; Anyway, UNC means that it is Uncirculated, but the Details-Obverse Scratched could not get any detail.&nbsp; Is there anyway to get more info on it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
