Readers, please do your own research on pricing. Auction archives at Heritage, Teletrade, Ebay are excellent resources, and every collector would do well to have a good understanding of pricing at auction for the coins they collect. For some coins in some grades, there isn't much difference between various services at the same grade. For other coins there is a wide average difference at auction. If there are a lot of data points, it becomes evidence, vs. one or two exceptional coins. Examine the evidence when you are going to be the one spending the money, don't read and accept the comments written here. For a lot of coins that I collect, some of the comments are completely off base. They might be true for whatever coins the writer collects, so they really aren't lies, or even false, but the comments may or may not apply to coins that another person might collect.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
