<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 1814473, member: 42727&quot;]I&#039;m also a big fan of eBay for purchasing slabbed coins.&nbsp; You need to know how to grade from a photo, understand the census for the coin(s) you&#039;re looking at and understand what market prices are at the time you purchase.&nbsp; Heritage Auctions has a huge (free) database of past auction archives.&nbsp; Use this along with the posted retail prices on NGC and PCGS&#039; websites and you&#039;ll have a good feel for pricing.&nbsp; Toned coins are altogether different, but that&#039;s for another day.&nbsp; As Sonoran Monsoon mentioned, buying raw coins without seeing them in hand is a crap shoot at best.&nbsp; Telltale cleaning lines are easy to hide in pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll never forget what one dealer said to me at my first coin show.&nbsp; It pertained to Morgans.&nbsp; He said that almost all grade-able Morgans have already been sent to a TPG for grading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
