[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 124609, member: 705"]Yes coins can get $$$.....IMHO you should only buy the coins you like and the coins that make you say WOW.....so if that is a BU or one that is worn smooth get it. Some time ago I decided to do a Proof Franklin set....I really didn't know alot back then (still don't) but picked the grade PF66 as the ONLY grade that would fit in the set. Right now I'm down to 3 coins to go....I just won a 1950 PCGS PF66 about two days ago.....can't wait to get it in.....so if you want a set all in BU go for it.... The set I'm working on has taken years....and I've sold off part of my collection to buy part of it...I've also traded for it.....but when its done its going to be one of my favorites!!! There were many times I thought about just getting the $$$ Proof Franklins in lower grades just to get it done with but I knew that wouldn't make me happy. My point is....if you want to do a BU set....don't let something hold you back....there are coins I own that I never thought I would be able too.....saving and trading works great!!! Speedy[/QUOTE]
