Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 04/10/2005 2:59 pm Gallery Grading does not have a website or any other info other than what is in this seller's auctions. It is my opinion that he is buying generic plastic holders, printing out Avery labels, and calling it a graded slab. I do wish you could post a picture, though. You may have lucked out and got a really nice one. I sincerely hope that you did Report this Post to the Staff
Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 04/10/2005 3:11 pm LOYO, based on all of the responses you can probably see the concern is that the coin is over graded. It's very difficult to determine the quality even with a picture sometimes. It's hard to politely ask about the cost, but I think some of the Pro's here could give a more solid answer if they knew the cost.The grading service is not a recognized service in this hobby. Good Luck! Mike Edited by Mike 04/11/2005 04:50 am Report this Post to the Staff
LOYO New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 04/13/2005 5:21 pm Well to answer the question of how much (which I don't mind you asking at all) the first time I went in to this shop I was told $27 then 2 days later when returning during the day I asked the price again from a different gentleman and he told me $11! That is why I was like WHAT? When I explain the two scenarios to the owner I was told there must have been a mistake he would sell it to me for $15 anyways to make this very long story short I paid $11 plus tax for this gem! So hopefully it was worth it! Report this Post to the Staff
SFDukie Pillar of the Community United States 980 Posts	Posted 04/13/2005 6:46 pm Hi LOYO, hope it was a gem and that your stepfather likes it. It was thoughtful of you. If you buy more coins check here first- I'm not an expert but many here are. For what you paid you could likely get an MS 65 RD slabbed by PCGS, and then we wouldn't have many of these questions. Where is your dealer located? Don Report this Post to the Staff
Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 04/14/2005 03:37 am LOYO, it sounds like all is well and I'm sure Your Stepfather will love it! Don't be a stranger! Mike Edited by Mike 04/14/2005 03:37 am Report this Post to the Staff
