<p>[QUOTE=&quot;baseball21, post: 7666412, member: 76863&quot;]I won’t do a list but the biggest thing is often when someone thinks they’re way off to start asking why.&nbsp; Almost always there’s something about the series that the collector just isn’t aware of that makes them think it’s so insanely off, they really are basically never inanely off besides a mechanical error.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>There’s also a big lesson too with pictures where you can grade to an extent, but picture grading is a fools errand for trying to condemn the TPGs for the most part.&nbsp; You can make a coin look a 1000 different ways in pictures and get different answers every time.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Raw coins depend what you’re buying. Raw coins are the biggest traps overall when talking about something of value.&nbsp; Many dealers crack details coins and sell the coins raw at their local or regional shows/shops unfortunately and of course the biggest issue is that if you don’t know you missed an issue you won’t know. Is every raw coin bad, no but anything of numismatic value should be highly suspect from a buyers standpoint.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It’s like anything else in collecting, there’s not one answer to anything and doing x could be better than y in a situations but that doesn’t mean it always is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
