The color of a coin really has nothing to do with it's state of preservation, which is where the grade comes in. I believe some grading companies...
Being picky(and patient) can have some serious rewards. The coin you picked up here is an excellent example....nice, very nice!:thumb:
Unless you plan on spending the amount of money you have in gold bullion on a home safe, my opinion is go to the bank. It kind of bums me out...
