[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 6369989, member: 73489"]It usually does -- but that doesn't mean you want to buy mass-produced coins at the MS70 level as you pay a huge premium over the bullion value. [B][COLOR=#0000ff] Check the prices of MS69 coins -- just a notch below, but the price drop can be substantial.[/COLOR][/B] And of course, if you are buying DOZENS or more of a particular type, no need to have most of them slabbed and graded, like a silver or gold bullion collection. Because if you are buying something for pure bullion reasons, then you have a premium to overcome in the future if you decide to sell and realize a profit. I buy silver commemorative coins but they are probably only 5% of my total silver investment. I buy them because I want a few in slabs and I want a few graded 70 or 69.
