<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 698393, member: 6641&quot;]Why not then make a deal with the dealer? Pick a coin you like and then they give you a grade on it. Tell them that if the coin grades the same, 1 point higher, or lower, you will pay for the grading and the coin. If it grades 2 points lower, they pay for the grading and have the option to offer you a fair price based on that grade. BTW: I would take a picture of the face to insure the coin so they cannot switch coins to make things work out in their favor.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With more expensive Morgans, a dealer worth a (you know) ~ they should be willing to work in a fair manner for you and them. If it is an expensive Morgan, then why not risk the price of grading it?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I agree with descriptions like superb and gem as being ambiguous. Anyone can say it means something different to them based on whatever notion (good or bad) they have. A point grade is based on a system that at least has rules that most legit people can interpret close enough to the same.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The dealer Danr mentioned is the type of dealer I would want to do business with or someone that has an impeccable reputation. If they are not willing to put their advice to the test against an independent reputable source then I would not want to spend hard earned money with them!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Trust is earned.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
