[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 971390, member: 24633"]Welcome to the neighborhood! As you discovered, there are some dealers who can't be trusted to give you an honest answer. This doesn't appear to be a case of the dealer simply being misinformed because it is his job to [B]know[/B] if a grading service is reputable or not and also how that service's "product" would be viewed by most veteran collectors. If the dealer had been doing his job, he would have given your daughter the pro's and con's regarding the value of the coin in the UNC slab. Since you both are new to numismatics, I would strongly advise that when you consider buying certified coins, stick to the major services.....NGC & PCGS. Please convey to your daughter my thanks and appreciation for her service to our country. Chris[/QUOTE]
