If you&#039;ve paid that much for a coin or two, you can pay that much for pro imagery. There are smartphones out there - iPhones and Galaxy S4 that I&#039;m certain of, more must exist - which can shoot gradable images of coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>And if you shoot your own gradable images, you learn the nuances of each grading method on the spot.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
