<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2713908, member: 1765&quot;]I buying for non-collectors, you want something that really looks good.&nbsp; I could make a case for buying higher grade generics, like 80-S in 66PL, as they are more spectacular to look at than a circulated semi-key, and they shouldn&#039;t be too hard to find.&nbsp; I&#039;d only buy coins in this grade with a CAC sticker, though, as there is a wide range of quality, and you don&#039;t want to end up with a dog.&nbsp; These coins are not rare, but they are popular and always easy to sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>If someone is a collector (not necessarily a coin collector, just someone who has a predisposition to collect stuff), then I&#039;d tend toward something that is a little more scarce, but not as high grade.&nbsp; 78 8TF in 64, 78-CC in 64, 86-S or 88-S in 63PL, 92-CC in 45, 94-S in 50, etc.&nbsp; I could make a long list of these, but I think you get the picture -- stuff that has more than just a pretty face and lots of flash that a collector of things will be able to appreciate.&nbsp; These less generic coins tend to have the most potential for holding or gaining value</p><p><br /></p><p>If you&#039;re trying to keep everything equal in perception, then perhaps generics for everyone would be best.&nbsp; They would also be easier (i.e., quicker) to source.&nbsp; Go through someone that has recommendations and or references you can trust.&nbsp; There are also people here that could help or set you up with someone else who can.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
