[QUOTE="Azpatriot, post: 1261881, member: 32979"]I look at the 86 Proof that is NGC graded I paid $18.50 over spot. I know it is $15-30 for the grading itself so I was not paying any real premium over spot I just paid extra for the grading service. The local dealer advised me not to send in my proof eagles that were direct in the mint in original cases, however if you can find them already done then I figure why not...25 years from now it will be 50 years old and the extra $15 I spent may well be worth it. Would seem reasonable to me that that when things are going good in the economy collectables would far outpace the bullion. When things are bad the collectables don't get hammered but at the same time they do not move up % wise the way the PM does. People have extra money they want to own quality, people are worried they just want the PM. Seems to me then that when times are economically touch buy the graded stuff, when things are good buy bullion for the PM value. Does that seem logical?[/QUOTE]
