Consumer Awareness
The coin market is speculative and unregulated. Many areas of numismatics lend themselves to third party grading and authentication. Population or census figures quoted in listings are based on information available to us at the time of listing. These numbers are not guaranteed and should not be used as a basis for purchasing any items sold by us. We are not selling coins as an investment, and do not offer investment advice.
RISK FACTORS:
Certification
does not eliminate
all risks associated with the grading and purchasing of rare coins. The
purchase of coins is highly speculative and involves substantial risk.
As in
other markets, coin prices can be extremely volatile and will rise fall
depending upon market conditions as well as changing supply and demand.
We do not sell coins as an investment but rather as a
collectible
that should serve the purpose of enjoyment in one of the world’s
largest
and greatest hobbies. Before purchasing coins, you should first have
adequate
cash reserves and other assets to absorb a potentially significant loss.
