<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 3244366, member: 78244&quot;]I was a small dealer for 2 years, and it was an utmost educational experience. </p><p><br /></p><p>Believe it or not, one of the major things I learned was how to predict what a coin would look like in hand from a picture, how the photography setup affects the appearance of the coin, what kinds of damage are noticeable in hand, and what kinds of damage are really only noticeable in pictures. I predicted exactly how a coin would look 9 times out of 10 when buying off of eBay. It is from this why I am so confident in grading coins from pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I loved temporarily owning pieces of history that I could not afford to keep, but I hated having to constantly think of them as a commodity.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
