<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dougmeister, post: 2362433, member: 56842&quot;]For guys like me, these are some seriously expensive coins!

G ~$800, VG about $250 more?</b></p><p><br /></p><p><b>2) Why are these so hard to find problem-free?</b></p><p><br /></p><p>There are a decent number of these out there in VF and above, but the lower-grade coins almost always seem to have holes or other &quot;details grade&quot; issues.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is this because high-grade coins were only kept &quot;high-grade&quot; by collectors and upper-class whereas middle-class folks put holes in them so they wouldn&#039;t lose them?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
