[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1577508, member: 112"]Yes, it would, for several reasons. But mainly for the one already mentioned. But when it comes to deciding what grade level to look for, instead of letting cost be your guide, let your taste be your guide. Buy coins that appeal to you, coins that you like, coins that you are happy with. I say this because when you let cost be your guide a lot of the time you end up being unhappy with the coin, you find yourself wanting something better, something nicer, a higher grade. And inevitably you will eventually buy that coin in that higher grade. And when you do, it will end up costing you more than if you had bought the higher grade coin in the first place. Yes I know it is your intention to "save money" by going with the lower grade coins. But that is NOT what will happen. This is a mistake that many people make when collecting coins, any coins. It will always cost you more money in the long run if you buy lower grade coins with the intention of upgrading them at a later time - always ! Never buy with the intention of upgrading. Only buy what you are happy with as it is.[/QUOTE]
