armysgti Posted October 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Regards to putting together the set, I know I want to try and get the highest grade possible, however at this point , I am just looking to fill some holes. Any suggestions on certains dates , which ones to hold off on till the hiher grade can be obtained ??? Thanks for your time .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Great question. Do you have a copy of "The Guide Book of United States Coins," better known as the Red Book? If so, I recommend going in order of which coins have the highest mintages (or lowest values). Actually, it's even easier than that. When you're going to a coin shop, find the coin that looks the best to you (and, if you're lucky, is already graded very highly) AND that you can comfortably afford. Buy it. After a while (years), you'll have most of the coins in the series in very high grades. Then you'll be left with the big ones. That is the case for me. I started with the smaller dates and I only have one or two coins left - the most expensive and rarest ones. I've seen plenty of them for sale but I'm waiting for the right one to add to my collection. I don't know when I'll find it, but I am sure it will be worth the wait.

armysgti Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 No Need to be ... I was able to obtain a few graded PCGS/NGC at a great price. Belonging to the Baltimore Coin Club has its perks .... I should have listened to your advice regarding your buying practice. Now that I have at least 8 graded, I am looking to either submit or buy the rest graded. I agree with you ... Beautiful Coin !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
