[QUOTE="treylxapi47, post: 1734929, member: 41863"]Ok let me simplify this down just a bit cause I am a bourbon and beer kind of guy. I like the coin, no doubt about that. I WILL own one (maybe 2 sets). So that's not the issue. I have no problem paying the base price for the coin as I've already made my purchase from the mint. I am still waiting though, so I don't know when I will see it. My dilemma is multi-faceted. I am slightly impatient, but not to the point where I can't wait. So that's one reason I am leaning towards a graded set (I didn't see where silvertowne was selling the black 69s for more than any other label 69s), it could be here in just a few days, where as who knows the arrival date from the mint. If I give up my OGP set there's no more of those being made. The black label is in a similar situation so I am asking which would be the better buy? Or which would carry a higher premium down the road? I'm not concerned about the coin itself I will appreciate it either way, but down the road which would carry the better value? The retro label 69 or an OGP set? So the breakdown goes in my mind something like this: I can have a guaranteed NGC 69 in a 'cool' black labeled holder for $30 more and have it in a couple of days. Or I can have a possible 70 OGP (could be a 68 though), have to wait indefinitely, but also the fact that its original as issued. In 40 years which do you think would be more desirable? . . . . . . . . . You know after seeing it written down like that I now know what I should do. I'm gonna stick with the OGP and just love my coin(s), why do I need to worry what the folks do after me, I only bought one set, so as long as I'm happy with the coin the holder is irrelevant. I'll let the people after me worry about that crap on this one.[/QUOTE]
