<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3612561, member: 15199"]If you frequent eBay, learn to use their search for sold items to see what your coin/grade/variety might go for. Grading and slabbing by a top TPG is tough as many only do the well known and in the literature such as CPG, etc. Then subtract for about $30-$50 for estimate of expense. Most TPGs charge more for variety grading. Others are cheaper, but the coins sell cheaper also. If a variety isn't in a top 50 category and XF at least , it will drain your capital rather than add to it. IMO,IMO as from experience rather than survey, Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
