<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Larry Moran, post: 798025, member: 4580&quot;]Yes, ebay&#039;s rules do seem overly restrictive in this area, but they have been burned by countless sellers who sold coins &#039;graded&#039; by a fly-by-night TPG, Like SGS and NNC.&nbsp; These unprofessional &#039;grading services&#039; are also called SSS&#039;s (shameless self-slabbers).</p><p><br /></p><p>SGS&#039;s average grade is about MS-67 and is often not really relevant to the actual coin being sold.&nbsp; They sell many coins labeled MS-70.&nbsp; I have personally seen very few coins in my lifetime that warranted a &#039;perfect&#039; grade.&nbsp; ; )</p><p><br /></p><p>If you want to learn about coins, the best resources I have found in 50 years of collecting are the ebay listings and ebay&#039;s Coins and Paper Money Discussion Board.&nbsp; You can learn more in a year that way than in a lifetime of attending coin club meetings.&nbsp; ; )[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
