<p>[QUOTE="HULL COINS, post: 782759, member: 19759"]You could get yourself in a lot of trouble... Is this your personal opinion of the coin? Are you an expert? What certification comes with a slab of yours? The reason people pay more to have coins graded by NGC and PCGS is because of the guidelines for each grade and several professionals all settle on the same grade. If you have watched the PCGS video it shows you how the coins are examined by multiple pros. Then when you receive your coin back you have online price guides and population reports for your coins... heck you even get to compete against others with your grade coins. If this is just your opinion on the coins' grade then why wouldn't we just go around to shows have dealers tell you what the grade is then throw it in a slab yourself.I'm sorry but I don't see how this could be profitable to you or the coin community.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
