<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tymoney420, post: 964251, member: 25815&quot;]Hello World!!!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have always been told that I should only pay for the coin and not the plastic its in. I wonder how important is it to get a coin graded. Most dealers tell me the coins should be worth at least 2-3 hundred dollars. I have always wondered about the Silver Eagles. Now I would love to put together a MS-70 collection, but I would have to sell my house to come close to that. I am attempting to put together a First Strike MS-69 Collection, because it is much easier to put together... But I wonder why these companys would grade these coins, since most of them are worth about 20 dollars. Plus, what does First Strike really mean. Each dealer tells me something different. I have always though First Strike coins were minted the first thirty days with a new die. I would like to learn the importance of PCGS and NGC? Plus, what does First Strike truely mean and how it affects the value of a coin? Would I as a invester/collector have a better return on an MS-68 First Strike Complete Set minus any proof coins, or a MS-69 First Strike Complete Set minus any and all proof coins? Finally how does the First Strike coins affect the premium of the coins?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Tyler D Hess[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
