<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 2330650, member: 15309"]I buy all my coins sight unseen, with only photographs to judge. Most dealers offer a return policy so that is not an issue, nor is E-Bay. The only real risk is buying sight unseen from Heritage or other major auction houses. Since they only usually sell graded coins, it is pretty easy to get most of your money back if you don't like the coin in hand. Heritage's photos have improved greatly over the years. I used to pride myself on being able to pick great toned coins with substandard photos. Here is an example.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/jefferson-nickels/1941-d-5c-ms67-s-full-steps-ngc/a/1114-7818.s?ic2=mybidspage-lotlinks-12202013" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/jefferson-nickels/1941-d-5c-ms67-s-full-steps-ngc/a/1114-7818.s?ic2=mybidspage-lotlinks-12202013" rel="nofollow">1941-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67 5FS</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Heritage's Images</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://dyn1.heritagestatic.com/lf?set=path%5B4%2F0%2F1%2F3%2F4013890%5D%2Csizedata%5B372x500%5D&call=url%5Bfile%3Aproduct.chain%5D" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://dyn2.heritagestatic.com/lf?set=path%5B4%2F0%2F1%2F3%2F4013903%5D%2Csizedata%5B372x500%5D&call=url%5Bfile%3Aproduct.chain%5D" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>My Images</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickel%20Registry/JN1941-DNGCMS67Star5FS.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
