<p>[QUOTE="Jersey, post: 383630, member: 14866"]Ok, this may sound wierd but I'm extremely confused. When looking for the details to find the grade of a coin, do you tilt it at an angle so it shines, and then look for the details? Or do you just set it in front of you and do it from there. I'm asking this because I have a quarter eagle, and I'm wondering if I should get it certified. It doesn't look like a MS coin until you tilt it at an angle and then you can really see it shine and look for tiny details like feather tips. So what I'm asking is, do I tilt it at an angle and let it shine, then look for the details, or do I just set it in front of me on the table and not even touch it? Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
