<p>[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 3601647, member: 101855"]I would go with the best coins you can afford. You need to go more slowly, buying the pieces you like, rather pushing things and filling holes all at once. Since you type set is within a narrow range of years, matching the grades to a point makes sense (I.e. you don’t want a Good next to an AU or Uncirculated.) If you get to the point where are collecting all or many of the types over 200+ years, the spread in grades can and will probably need to be wider. Dave Bowers had some good advice years ago when he recommended going for at least Find or better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
