[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 2593250, member: 19250"]AU 58 FH SLQ[ATTACH=full]564869[/ATTACH] And will agree that sometimes a lower grade may have more eye appeal then one who is graded a point or two higher. The age old saying buy the coin not the slab definitely comes into play here. From getting to know you ...your likes as well as dislikes...I feel you're more comfortable buying a slabbed coin over raw. This may sound a tad bit odd this is a practice you need to stop. I understand you feel safe buying guarantee a graded coin. You need to trust your eye and knowledge and forget the plastic. Not saying you need to buy a high dollar coin raw, but start looking at raw coins using what you know. I also understand that there aren't a lot of shows and shops in your area. Buying any coin using images can be a home run or a let down. Asking questions is always good as it gains you knowledge , trust yourself with the knowledge you already have. :)[/QUOTE]
