My own personal thought/opinion is that if you are going to invest in a type II, I would want it certified. I am not a slab collector, but this is one coin that would be the exception. This is for two reasons - first and the most obvious, you would be guarenteed (for the most part) the coin you are expecting. I would search for a PCGS or NGC graded coin - of course the ones i have seen on ebay usually command a premium and tend to sell for above list. The coin is still affordable and can easily be obtained... I&#039;m just not going to pay above list.&nbsp; Second, it wouldn&#039;t fit into my Whitman book. I have a Whitman Deluxe holder which provides three extra slots for &quot;varieties&quot;. I filled one slot with a type III and the other two slots with both the UNC and Proof 1990 Commem coins. I saw this on ebay and thought it looked great.&nbsp; Adding these coins, I felt, really completed the set. My two cents.... for what its worth.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
