[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 2746767, member: 15309"]Why not show the coin photo and description and then explain what grade you would assign. After all, that is the whole point of this exercise. Waiting till after you receive the coin to reveal your prediction on grade defeats the point. If you are concerned that GSC has spies on Cointalk, simply wait until they ship the coin to show it. Lastly, GSC is a high volume seller and I'm sure it is easy to cherry pick minor varieties on some of their coins, as it is with all dealers. I feel compelled to mention that GSC sells a ton of graded material as well as some raw generic material that is described accurately. The problem is with their raw material that has numismatic value. With many of those coins, they use deceptive photos in conjunction with high grade descriptions to boost the sale price of their coins.[/QUOTE]
