Coin Grading
Grading is subjective and any grade, category, or range we might state is only our opinion. You must make your own decision on any grade you want to assign to this coin. We highly recommend you use tools like PCGS PhotoGrade which are available online.
Coin Imaging
All our listing images are taken under microscope at 50 megapixels using natural lighting conditions. If we think a coin is uncirculated, or close to uncirculated, we may also include negatives. Negatives can show possible friction points for wear as well as emphasize the coin's luster, or lack thereof.
Coin Pricing
We make every attempt to price our listings fairly. For raw coins, we leverage market data consolidators like NumisMedia and Coin World. For graded coins, we base pricing on recent online sales from auction houses like Great Collections, as well as sales data available from NGC and PCGS.
Coin Returns
We want happy customers and make every effort to accurately describe and portray the item. We stand behind those representations with a Returns Policy. Our coins ship in a sealed Mylar flip which provides a clear view of the Obverse and Reverse. If you break the seal and remove the coin, we cannot accept it for a return. This policy helps ensure that any returned items are the same as sent.
