<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 63151, member: 3011&quot;]How likely is it that I would get a good coin if I bought one sight-unseen from an internet dealer?&nbsp; This sounds pretty risky, but there are a lot of offers out there and it seems that somebody must be satisfied or they wouldn&#039;t stay in business.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a real life example using a coin dealer that I&#039;ve seen mentioned on this site as pretty reliable - Coast to Coast, and a real offer.&nbsp; They offer $20 liberty gold pieces for $519 in &quot;gem brilliant uncirculated&quot; condition, their highest grade, their choice of dates.&nbsp; This seems pretty reasonable for even a common date, 1904 coin.&nbsp; What grade would I be likely to get on an offer like this since they offer two lower grades (select and choice) of uncirculated coins?&nbsp; Would it even be a sure thing that it would be uncirculated and not AU? </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not picking on Coast to Coast here, just injecting a bit of realism.&nbsp; What has been the experience out there?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
