<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1345000, member: 23885"]I find it very interesting. I would enjoy seeing an appraisal in action. The way my grandpa/great uncle's appraisal was done, was fast, in a hurry and in poor taste. My mom (knows nothing about coins) was there and was offered something rather low. This is why I have a feeling that appraisals should be seperate from a buying/selling relationship. If a gentleman has interest in buying my entire collection I do believe I would want an independant appraiser. The buyer can do his own appraisal to varify. I suppose if the dealer has a respectable name in the industry it would be ok. The way I invision it in my head is 3 Nuismatic experts with white gloves on. They write down the appraisal estimation on paper, and finally come to a consensus. This is how they estimated the value of the mideval hoard of gold which was dug up by a metal detector. Very interesting. I could see a couple good honest appraisals helping a dealer advance in the nuismatic community. Very nice.</p><p><br /></p><p>The guys below are good actors.
