<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 8549567, member: 100459"]I enjoyed seeing your coins. When I started collecting, I bought some gold coins from a dealer that were raw. He offered to take them to a show in a few days. He thought they would both be graded MS63, but he said not to hold him to those grades. Being a newbie, I let him take them to the show. I only had to reimburse him his expense to have them graded. When he came back, he told me the coins didn't do as well as he thought they would. He offered to buy them back and he would not ask me to reimburse the cost to have them graded. Anyway, the Liberty Head double eagle was a "details" coin and the Liberty eagle was MS-61. I decided to keep them. I am not versed well enough to grade a coin accurately. The only way I will have a graded coin is if it has already been graded. For that reason, only only have about 40 graded coins, mostly purchased through ebay.</p><p>I really like your Reverse Proof ASEs. I bought the set from the Mint. I have only taken it out to look at them a couple of times. They are beautiful.</p><p>I would like to know how good are the coins that are bought from the Mint? Do they usually have high grades as yours are? Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
