<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collecting Nut, post: 2416698, member: 74863&quot;]Ok, understood, but look at the history of key dates. They are always higher in price due to the scarcity of them (low mintages). Over time, like all things, coins and key dates go up in price and the key dates more so. They hold their value despite the grade. Low grade coins like the OP&#039;s will still retain that price. The collector just needs it to fill a hole. Supply and demand. I don&#039;t like the empty space either but I wait for the best coin I can afford to fill that hole.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having that hole gives me more incentive to save and get that coin so the whole is filled. To me, it&#039;s all part of the fun of the hobby. I have my low grades sets and lots of holes in Whitman Albums. I also have holes in my high grades sets. The price of higher grades forces me to have patience. I&#039;ve been looking for the last 3 coins to complete my MS-64 or higher PCGS Peace Dollars for years. I have the money but 2 dealers can&#039;t find the coins. That&#039;s an aggravating eyesore but I keep looking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
