[QUOTE="lkeigwin, post: 1414271, member: 30400"]Coins come from everywhere, but originally the Mint. :D Seriously, rolls are searched, old raw coins are handed down. Eventually someone perceives a value to having a coin graded. Reholdering is not the same as regrading and the costs are different. It is your money, and if value for your money isn't important, then spend it on the label. It will add little-to-no value but sometimes there are other reasons, I understand. You will need to have the 69 regraded (at the higher cost) if you hope for it to earn a 70. The odds are long but if your eye, and perhaps the eye of a professional/mentor, think it has a great chance, go for it. Remember that even the smallest flaw counts. And the coin could downgrade (though their guarantee would kick in). You didn't say which is the 69. There isn't a big jump from 69 to 70 for a 2008W. But there is for a 2007. That's the money coin.
