<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 2559815, member: 39084&quot;]I&#039;d be shocked if any of the more experienced collectors on this site base the price they&#039;re willing to pay for a coin on their own or others&#039; judgement of the coin&#039;s <i>grade</i>. </p><p><br /></p><p>Comparisons to other similar coins, and those coins&#039; price and condition, can be very helpful in evaluating whether a potential purchase is fairly priced, but the grade is pretty much irrelevant when performing a <i>comparative</i> evaluation for the purpose of making a purchase/no purchase decision.&nbsp; If I&#039;m comparing a potential purchase against four or five other coins for which I have pictures and recent prices, it&#039;s completely meaningless to me what the grades of those other coins might be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
