Notice

Consumers should be aware that the market in U.S. and World coins is at times volatile and involves a due measure of risk. Only those who are aware of, and inclined to bear, the financial risk involved with buying and selling coins should participate in this market. Although consensus grading is employed by most grading services, it should be noted that grading is not an exact science. In fact, it is entirely possible that if a coin was broken out of a plastic holder and was resubmitted to another grading service or even the same service, the coin could come back a different grade. It is important for consumers to understand that grading and certification by the grading services does not guarantee protection from common risks associated with a market which is potentially volatile. The degree of liquidity for certified coins and collectibles will vary according to general market conditions and the particular coin involved. For some coins there may be no active market at all at certain points in time. The opinions expressed in this website are solely statements of judgment.
