<p>[QUOTE="coleguy, post: 1705823, member: 9167"]I agree, Chris. I think new collectors would be wise to start off with graded coins, even if they're junk, just to get a sense of what the grades are, and to learn. To read what makes a coin grade a certain way is far less effective than actually seeing a graded coin. But, it seems so many use this to further their laziness and rely solely on the TPG's to grade their coins and never learn for themselves. It's really not that difficult to learn. While I don't care for grading myself, I still learned how to grade over the years so I have that advantage when buying raw.</p><p>Guy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
