<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tibor, post: 3585871, member: 73385&quot;]Some of you might have read my comments to some of the coins that</p><p>they are candidates for upgrade. Some of these coins have had a slightly</p><p>better replacement come along. I did not pursue them because the</p><p>improvement was not great enough to justify the purchase. Going from</p><p>VF-30 to VF-35 or even XF-40 was not worth the trouble. I did however</p><p>buy/bid on a coin where there was significant improvement with the date.</p><p>Most of the time improvements never appear. Even though the coin may</p><p>be listed as common or scarce in Levinson&#039;s book they just do not show</p><p>up in the market place or auction venue. In the last 18 years I&#039;ve only</p><p>upgraded 25 coins. I probably have that many more to upgrade. While</p><p>this is an EXTREMELY small niche in Medieval coins, nice quality pieces</p><p>rarely come along. Will post for a few more days and then take a break</p><p>for the&nbsp; 4th of July holiday.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
