<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Owle, post: 1308097, member: 22004&quot;]Good thoughts on this thread.&nbsp; I submit coins for grading partly to try to get good results, and so that the coins are more marketable as others have said here.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does the coin have &quot;issues&quot;; cleaning, rim marks, anything suspicious vis-a-vis comparable coins? In submitting it you will have your concerns either supported or removed.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t fall in love with any coin.&nbsp; I enjoy it for a while, then get it certified and sold, either directly or through Teletrade&#039;s or Great Collections discounted grading programs.&nbsp; When the coin gets graded at the company of your choice, it gets placed in auction, where you get three shots at selling the coin with a reserve.&nbsp; Through this method, you enjoy the coin, others get to look at the coins high quality images, and then finally someone else gets to own it with pride.&nbsp; To me this is the most ethical system if you have bought the coin at a level where you will not lose money.&nbsp; And that is the kicker--there are plenty of dealers selling coins way over what they should be, they may be in questionable holders.&nbsp; Don&#039;t subsidize rackets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
