All items offered by us are ABOVE average for the grades.  This means that there are neither unsightly damage nor distracting problems, outside of perhaps a few of the usual average circulation marks that professionals might expect to see typically on the grades and years offered.  In over 30 years of experience, we have found NO coins or stamps that are absolutely perfect by our strict grading standards-even ones graded as perfect by PCGS and other grading services.  All coins and stamps have slight imperfections under high magnification as they are handled by imperfect humans and manufacturing machines.  Such slight imperfections are not usually noticeable to the unaided eye or by untrained collectors.  Thus, such tiny and slight imperfections neither lower the value nor the eye-appeal of the items offered.

We do carry other items that are AVERAGE for the grades listed, at 30% off all of the prices listed here.  These have slight to moderate problems such as light porosity (slight pitting), rim bumps, tiny nicks or spots that can be removed, etc., that are normally found on older coins.  The only exception is gold coins and bullion-priced silver coins.  Almost all of our gold coins are exceptionally nice and problem-free unless otherwise noted.  Lower grade silver coins are usually worth about the same, whether slightly damaged or not.  If you want to order such less-than-perfect copper, nickel, and non-bullion silver coins as well as stamps, just state AVERAGE for the grade you want, and deduct 30% off.  We buy such average coins at 60% of the prices listed throughout our site and catalogs.  Major problem coins would have to be examined and we would be happy to make an offer, or send them along with your own offer.
