<p>[QUOTE="Paul M., post: 2550289, member: 73165"]A guarantee of authenticity is effectively an insurance policy indemnifying the collector against the possible purchase of a counterfeit coin. If you offer an insurance policy, you should charge a premium for it, but you should also be prepared to pay out. If a dealer sold a common date $10 Liberty at the 2011 peak of ~$1900 an oz, the coin would probably sell for $900-1000 or so at that time, so that would be the insured value. In the original scenario, the insured value is lower than the scrap value, which is why the dealer ought to buy it back at scrap value. I see no inconsistency.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
