<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 494857, member: 112&quot;]You guys wanna learn to cherrypick ? Forget about variety this and error that - focus on the coin itself instead.</p><p><br /></p><p>The easiest place to do this is at coin shows. Find those dealers that have their coins set up in a display where they can be easily seen even from 10 ft away. Stay back that 10 ft and look, don&#039;t just glance, actually look at the coins from a distance. You&#039;re gonna see one, maybe two that stand out from that distance.</p><p><br /></p><p>What you are looking for is luster. You might have to move up and down the aisle a little to catch the light right, but you&#039;ll see them. Then walk up and look closely at the coins. Don&#039;t pick them up or even ask if you can see them - yet. But stand 2 to 3 ft away and look closer. Look at the 2x2, flip or slab and see what they have graded the coin. If you think that coin may have been under-graded - now ask if you can see the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Examine it closely, just your eyes, turning it under the light. Odds are you won&#039;t even need a loupe. If you still think the coin is under-graded, buy it. </p><p><br /></p><p>I can walk up and pick out 65&#039;s that are marked as 64&#039;s on a regular basis. And every now and then you&#039;re really gonna get lucky like with &#039;42-S Walker. Price jumps from around $75 - $80 for a 64 to over $500 for a 65.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now that&#039;s cherrypickin ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
