<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1231350, member: 24633&quot;]The problem I have is that &quot;BU&quot;, even &quot;AU&quot;, covers a lot of territory. If your local dealer is &quot;old school&quot;, chances are that the BU specimen could be MS60 as easily as it could be MS63. You can probably gain some insight about his &quot;tactics&quot; if you look at some of his other inventory, not just Peace dollars. If he has other coins with numeric grades, such as MS63, MS64, MS65, etc., chances are that this particular 1921 Peace is on the low end of BU (MS60), but he is trying to charge on the high end of BU (MS63). The &#039;21 Peace almost doubles in value in this case, but if other coins have numeric grades, chances are they don&#039;t have a significant jump in value from one grade to the next. This would tell me that he is trying to pull a fast one on someone who doesn&#039;t know how to grade them. If this is true, your only protection would be to learn how to grade the series yourself.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
