[QUOTE="scottb, post: 695932, member: 20621"]I'm a fairly new and inexperienced collector with a small collection of silver, gold and platinum Eagles, along with some other coins. I have been told by a dealer that I shouldn't bother with grading Eagles. I've also seen some postings on CoinTalk that grading Eagles is a waste of money. But when I go to a number of auction sites to see prices, virtually all gold and platinum Eagles are graded, while some silvers are graded and others aren't. So when the experts say don't grade Eagles, do they mean don't grade any Eagle, or do they mean don't grade the silvers because their low price doesn't make grading worth the cost? If they mean don't grade any Eagle, then am I putting myself at a disadvantage when I try to sell an ungraded gold Eagle against 20 more that are graded PR70? Just trying to get unconfused. :)[/QUOTE]
