<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 707284, member: 19065"]The silver UNC and Proof bicentennial coins look <u>really</u> nice and make for a nicely grouped set to look at together. The clad proofs appear a lot more yellow-ish and I personally prefer the white-ness of proof silver, especially for the bicentennials. So I only look to buy the silver bicentennial coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don't have any of OGP bicentennials but I have a couple raw 76-S BU 40% silver Ikes and 76-S Proof Clad Ikes. Attached is a quick snap of a 76-S Silver NGC PF69 Cameo 50¢ I have. I think these are great coins in their respective series, they're still readily available and affordable in OGP, TPG or raw UNC states for the most part. </p><p><br /></p><p>By all means, buy what you like whether that be individually raw or graded or still in OGP so that you are happy with the coins you select to collect. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />hya:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
