<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1364862, member: 26302&quot;]Personally, I would make a rule for yourself sir. Never pay more for a coin that a tiny premium above its melt value until you learn how to grade and identify problems on coins like cleaning. Way too many new colelctors way overpay for coins. Until you KNOW why a coin is more valuable than the metal inside it, you are much better off to buy coins for their bullion value and spend more time on education. It will be the best return you can get in this hobby right now.</p><p><br /></p><p>Buy yourself a grading guide, and practice. Go to shows and practice. Look at coins online and practice. Once you can look at this coin you posted for 2 seconds and give me a grade we all would agree with, and be able to research selling prices for that coin in that grade, then you are ready to spend more than melt for a coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Its great to ask questions here, we are glad to help. The best help I know, though, is to advise you to learn how to grade on your own. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
