<p>[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 125381, member: 2972"]OK. Say you're working on a date set of large cents. You are parusing a well-known large cent dealer's inventory and spot a coin. It seems to appeal to you, and it is a date that you need for your set. Here's the dealer's photo:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.earlycoppers.com/Photos/MiddleDates/1818/1818_N7_NET45O.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.earlycoppers.com/Photos/MiddleDates/1818/1818_N7_NET45R.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Three questions:</p><p><br /></p><p>#1 -- What is your grade?</p><p>#2 -- What is your valuation ($)?</p><p>#3 -- Assuming the dealer's price is what you consider fair, is this coin a "buy" or a "pass"? At this point a "buy" is really "order on approval".</p><p><br /></p><p>Also feel free to explain your reasoning, and provide comments (both good AND bad) on the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>More will be revealed in a day or two, in the meantime.

At this point a "buy" is really "order on approval". Also feel free to explain your reasoning, and provide comments (both good AND bad) on the coin. More will be revealed in a day or two, in the meantime. Thanks in advance for your input....Mike[/QUOTE]
