<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moneycostingmemoney, post: 2695769, member: 86367&quot;]I hear you but half of the fun, if not more, for me is coin roll hunting and sorting through junk looking for a diamond. As far as the other half of my purchases I couldn&#039;t agree with you more. Knowing what you have in your hand (or pretty dang close to it) is better than staring at a raw coin questioning yourself about the amount of scratching, wear, etc before you open the wallet. As far as collecting coins for other than base metal value I&#039;d say I&#039;m only about a month in. The only grading I had to do before was make sure the die stamp looked correct and listen for the right &quot;klink.&quot; Stepping into this world has me fascinated; wanting to learn all that I can and this step of the hobby (grading and slabbing) seemed like an important place to start learning. A cool FREE app that I found that I&#039;m using to get used to the scale is PCGS photograde. Not sure if it&#039;s out for android (most likely is) but it is slowly becoming my favorite app on my iPhone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
