I maintain a disinfected and clean working station. And you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set out below. I grade my coins as professionally as I can.
Grading is a taxing, fun and frustrating job as well as being a highly subjective skill. My grading will almost always be on the conservative side rather than over grading. Coins pulled from circulation will be marked as such.UNC coins may have small imperfections such as light marks or surface anomalies, mint marks, bagging marks, impact strike marks. This happens when the coin is struck by another coin as it makes its way along the production line then falls into large hoppers. I strongly recommend you do not clean Coins as this will damage the coin and reduce its value greatly, in fact you may make your coin worthless. Dear Buyers please beware due to scammers all items over a set value are video recorded and photoed when packaged.
