When I started collecting, I was all over the place, picking up Morgans, junk silver, large cents, and just about anything I thought was cool. Now that I&#039;ve learned more, read a huge amount of material and began seriously collecting a single series (Lincolns) I&#039;m much pickier about the coins I buy.</p><p><br /></p><p>I only collect PCGS Lincolns cents. That may make me a kool-aid drinker, but I like to think I do a good job of buying the coin not the slab. I have a few coins in my collection that despite being common as dirt in MS66RD took a few months to acquire through Teletrade because all the offerings weren&#039;t attractive to me despite the TPG grade. And a few that were graded lower MS 63-64 that I paid way over price guide for because of excellent strike and eye appeal. I prefer PCGS simply because I like the holder and I want my set to be as congruent as possible both in the way the coins look and how they&#039;re presented. I have no feelings one way or another about whether PCGS is more strict on Lincolns. I would certainly buy an NGC coin if I agreed with the grade and thought it would cross at grade to PCGS.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my two cents, I hope to post alot more around here![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
