<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Long Beard, post: 4473540, member: 108674&quot;]While I understand the preference and subtle differences between third party graders I don&#039;t understand coins encapsulated as First Strike or Early Release. Is there any difference between an MS70 labeled as such and an otherwise &quot;normal&quot; strike of the same grade? What further baffles me is the premium these often carry. Are the fancy labels really worth the difference? I don&#039;t see the craze of these labels holding their value long term comparative to standard labeling. Not a wise investment at all especially on high mintage, common issue coins. It either is or it is not the assigned grade. The only logical conclusion would be some collect slabs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
