<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Azpatriot, post: 1291748, member: 32979&quot;]To me if it has been circulated and an older issue then I will consider grading or having it graded. Peace dollars, Morgans, Franklins and Walking Liberties that are 50-100+ years old I have no problem with the grading system, it definitely can improve the value, and is an easy tracking method of placing value. Modern bullion coins coming out of today&#039;s mint will normally grade out at a 69-70, I just don&#039;t see the value as much and feel a lot of it is nothing more then marketing to make a buck on the part of the grading companies. First Strike, Early release, Binnon&#039;s Hoard are IMO just gimmicks to raise the value of said coins by an artificial amount.</p><p><br /></p><p>All that being said I do have some graded eagles I purchased from between 5-10 dollars over spot price, in that instance I don&#039;t mind picking them up as somebody took the hit on the grading charge and it was not me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
