[QUOTE="kanga, post: 338335, member: 9270"]Bowers & Merena are a highly respected organization. Be aware that auction houses such as theirs generally have a high buyer's fee (20%) plus S&H. And as a [U]personal preference[/U], I stay away from coins graded MS-60, -61 & -62. There's generally some major distracting marks to cause an uncirculated coin to be graded that low. Many people prefer an AU-55 or -58 to a low grade MS- coin. I try to start at MS-63 for UNC coins. They often appear better looking AND save you money. That being said, yes, I have several MS-61 & -62 coins (I have to be truthful.)[/QUOTE]
