<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Indianhead65, post: 310492, member: 103422&quot;]Thats a pretty decent list of suggestions but arent suited for everyone. For example, #3 suggests that you find someone who is willing to spend time with you, as in a dealer or another collector, to improve grading skills. Not everyone lives within a convenient drive to a knowledgable/reputable coin dealer or collector to be able to consistently invest in the time it takes to learn to grade properly. IMO, there is just as much knowledge, if not more, in a good grading book like ANA, Photograde or NGC. If a collector is willing to spend the time reading at least one of these books and studying different coins to eventually be able to accurately grade, its time well spent. Dont get me wrong, I&#039;m all for sharing information with other collectors, I try to help anyone that I&#039;m able to but theres absolutely nothing wrong with sitting down with a good grading book and some of your own collection and learning to do it yourself. Either way, dont expect to be a grading expert in a few months, learning to grade accurately and consistently takes years of studying. Thats my 2 1/2 cents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
