<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RaceBannon, post: 1359820, member: 25357&quot;]MS 65 is a tough, tough grade to achieve across the board.&nbsp; Especially when you&#039;re talking early 20th century business strikes.&nbsp; Just to give you an example, the 1934D Washington Quarter can be had fairly inexpensively in lower grades.&nbsp; You can buy one for around melt in VG8.&nbsp; Now that same coin retails for $350 in MS63.&nbsp; In MS65 it&#039;s gonna cost you around $1500.&nbsp; There are a lot of instances like this, where the price jump for a given coin from MS63 to 65 is a jaw dropper.</p><p><br /></p><p>If money is not an&nbsp; issue for you, go for it.&nbsp; But if you&#039;re like most of the rest of us and you have to stick to a budget for your collecting, you might have to dip down into MS63 or even 62 for a few coins.&nbsp; But you could still achieve a mostly MS65 set, and then just dip down a grade or two for the condition rarities, I think that would still be a pretty special set.&nbsp; That&#039;s the best thing about this hobby, it&#039;s your collection, you get to decide how to do it!</p><p><br /></p><p>Good Luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
