<p>[QUOTE="jtrader, post: 573765, member: 18103"]Yea thanks for the advice. In fact I have been buying a lot of stuff lately. Everything I've bought I have felt comfortable with. I try to take my time and get the best deal. But I also realize that in the coin world you get what you pay for. Honestly most of these Morgans were bought from a swap meet. Except for the coin I bought from the dealer from 1881. So I didn't pay very much for them. At the time I didn't have my 5x and was having a really hard time trying to tell if the coins had been cleaned or not. I was looking at them in the sunlight and they seemed to look good to me at the time. But when I got them home I noticed a difference between them and some of the coins that I've bought from a coin show or dealer. I bought them cus at the time they looked to be in really good condition. Which they seem to be but some of them look as though they may have been cleaned. I even asked the old man who sold them to me if they had either been cleaned or dipped and he said no. So I took his word for it. If they have indeed been cleaned at least I didn't pay a lot for them. </p><p><br /></p><p>As far as your friends on this site that sell. I would love to be refer'd to them. I'm actually thinking of starting to sell coins on the side just for a hobby and to make some extra money. I do realize that I need to really learn how to grade well as that makes a big difference. Thanks again and feel free to let them know I'm interested in buying stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
