[QUOTE="cladking, post: 1163878, member: 68"]Why buy circulated moderns? Most moderns look junky enough anyway since they are shiny base metal that are poorly made and all scratched up. Lightly circulated coins rarely look very good and very few will ever have much value because they get lost in the woodwork and refound as soon as the price starts going higher. But the uncs don't survive and sometimes aren't saved. They often look good and if you search you can always find an attractive example. But most importantly for very modern coins the uncs will probably cost no more and might cost less. Someday you'll probably have far more appreciation for uncs than a collection of XF's and AU's and it's a certainty that the buyer of your collection will. Now days it's not that hard to find dealers for some of this stuff though I know it's still not being imported much and you'll spend a lot on postage probably.[/QUOTE]
