I am very late to this thread. First, Shaner, welcome to CT. I hope that your stash of coins will pique your interest in this great hobby....
Trey, I think in answer to your question: can you find good coins at a discount in holders from lower level grading companies? Yes (value...
Thanks for the new photos. I don't like the marks on Ms. Liberty's cheek. They look "mechanical".

That should keep you busy for a while! Let us know what gems you find.
Great additions dwhiz!
Nice Geek! The cranberry doesn't show well in your pics, but the luster sure does. I'll bet that's a cool one to hold on an angle and turn in...
