<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Zak, post: 26229, member: 824&quot;]For buying raw coins on ebay...take the seller&#039;s grade and subtract 2 to 5 points for MS coins and for raw coins, subtract an entire grade (i.e., EF40 is really VF20 to 30).</p><p><br /></p><p>For selling raw coins, use good digital shots taken in a macro mode with indirect, non-flash light.&nbsp; As for grades, I use B.U. versus AU, or EF versus VF and state in my description that grading is a matter of opinion, so please take a look at my close up pictures and determine your own grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>With that said, that is the reason for the fascination and success of professionally graded coins.&nbsp; It is NOT the seller&#039;s opinion, but that of PCGS, NGC, ICG or ANACS (the top four and the most respected out of them all).&nbsp; You have a better idea of what you are buying and selling which helps in &quot;sight, unseen&quot; coin transactions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
