<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Chiefbullsit, post: 4231723, member: 16513&quot;]In 2006 I bought the 2006-W Buffalo Gold Proof. I liked it so much I decided to join PCGS and have it graded. At that time I didn&#039;t know about the FIRST STRIKE label so I didn&#039;t get it. It graded 70 so I put it on Ebay and it sold without the FS label...BUT the FS 70s were selling for a $1000+ or more. I bought a FS69 with that money and learned a valuable lesson. Pay PCGS the $18 ($12 back then) for the FS label, it&#039;s worth it when you sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t play the PCGS/NGC grading game now so I&#039;m out of the loop on current pricing. My thinking is if you are having CERTAIN coins graded get the FS label. If you are buying graded coins buy the coin that you like and if it has a cool label you got a bonus.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a shot of the 70 I sold in early 2007. I&#039;ll never forget the feeling I had when that grade posted, it was my 1st submission, I was hooked.</p><p><br /></p><p>FWIW....I just like the Flag Label.</p><p><br /></p><p>.[ATTACH=full]1082043[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
