<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Zak, post: 32189, member: 824&quot;]That statement got me thinking as well, but for all intensive purposes, given the choice between quality or quantity, go with the quality.&nbsp; We are discussing this in this thread:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=4312" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=4312" rel="nofollow">http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=4312</a></p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, the above Brasher doubloon realized $3,000,000 this past weekend.&nbsp; $3,000,000 could have bought a truck full of coins.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>What he meant from &quot;junk&quot; is that junk will always be around and can easily be picked up at a later date, well within your budjet.&nbsp; The &quot;keys&quot; and the &quot;semi-keys&quot; will not, and their prices realized will far <u>outpace</u> commons all across the board.</p><p><br /></p><p>Take a 1881-CC Morgan in say, MS64 condition.&nbsp; A nice semi-key date coin.&nbsp; Would you rather have this coin <u>now</u> or 10 MS63 Morgans with dates of, for instance:&nbsp; 1879, 1880, 1882, 1883, 1884, 1885, 1886, 1889, 1896, 1900 (all Philadelohia mints).&nbsp; Nothing wrong with these MS63 coins, but given the choice of the two lot(s), I would by the CC first over the other 10...if both were offered at the <u>same</u> price. </p><p><br /></p><p>It is hard to pass up, because psychologically, we feel we didn&#039;t accomplish much since there are 10 times more &quot;holes&quot; to fill than the one coin you would buy...but in the short and long run, you will be better off![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
