Maybe this can sum all this up (or maybe not :D). We have 3 coins from WITHIN a bag (let's say Saints). All went straight from the Mint...
I don't disagree with anything you said here, Pick....the question is....is it wrong ? Is "wear" from a bag -- defined as different than light...
No, I get it -- but didn't you post a few back that bag marks ARE wear ???? I do acknowledge that for a coin that has got DOZENS of bag marks...
I think the silly ideas are in their head ! :D You know what ? The markets will eventually tell us....if/when silver moves up nicely, we'll have...
I know we've done this dance before...:D....but if a coin legitimately ONLY has bag marks, if that is the only "wear" that the coin has, it...
No, I get it....I think some people buying high and paying up for the 70's think that the price will track bullion -- which it most certainly will...
I'm not sure if people are buying these for INVESTMENT or because they like the coins, which show off great designs in the 5-oz. size. I've...

For $800 each, they can probably get some common MSDs with a CAC, right ? Or $800 might buy them an MSD 1-step up from common, huh ?
Not a bad choice....I might personally go for a larger denomination (more gold) coin. If whoever could spring for a few hundred more, I'd go for...
Thanks Insider....there's so much good info in this thread I can get confused when a question got definitively answered as I advance forward. :D

Thanks for chiming in Shanna....question....how important would overwhelming support from your normal vendors/dealers/displayers be in...
Someone mentioned here that the last sale was 1980 or 1981.
There may be good or bad reasons for submitting or NOT submitting your coins to a TPG....but I think the coins will be graded pretty fairly. You...
