<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 341974, member: 3726"]High on some and low on some. Nothing looks that bad to me. One thing I recommend (even though I don't do it all the time) is to decide what you are going to look at when going through the show. Then check online dealers and ebay closed auctions to get an idea of what you will be spending. To me if ebay auctions on an item usually close at lets say $50, then I would not mind spending extra money over the $50 to hold the coin and get an idea if I like the coin. Based off the eye appeal you can decide how much extra to go. In my own opinion I would rather spend my money at the local coin shop(and yes that means more money) so I can hold the coin and form my own opinion. This way you do not have to worry about bad/mis-leading pictures or worse shipping costs to and from the seller. Just my thoughts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
