<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dimeguy, post: 8290576, member: 19855&quot;]I&#039;ll start off by saying, as many have already mentioned, I am a raw collector. I do try to have all of my key dates slabbed, but as many have mentioned, price point becomes an issue. I do own a slabbed XF - details 1928 P that I do not regret. The grade matches the rest of the set and the scratch does not detract from the overall coin appreciation. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think that is another large factor to consider. If I cannot tell why the coin received the details grade, I would be more apt to purchase it, and potentially crack it out. I feel this way a lot of times with copper. My knowledge base continues to grow for my Lincoln cent collection, but I find as &quot;detail&quot; coins age in their holders, it becomes increasingly difficult to ascertain why they received the details grade in the first place.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
