<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 7844302, member: 19463&quot;]I see it a fair question if the coin has any effect on the value of the unit or if the deciding factor is the label.&nbsp; In modern coins, people have determined that it is worth their while to resubmit &#039;slider&#039; 63&#039;s to get a few 64&#039;s.&nbsp; The coin is the same but the price goes up more than the submission fee.&nbsp; No one will be resubmitting MS 5/5 5/5 coins but the $8k coins suggests that buying $800 bulk coins and submitting them for a percentage higher grade return could be money making.&nbsp; Should people be cautious?&nbsp; Certainly.&nbsp; Should they go so far as to learn about the coins or employ an agent who might tell a winner from a loser?&nbsp; Why do that?&nbsp; After all the label clearly reads &#039;perfect&#039; even if that was not the intent of the grader.&nbsp; All 5&#039;s are equal but some 5&#039;s are more equal than others.&nbsp; I really don&#039;t care if people with more money than sense get good advice or place their bets randomly.&nbsp; A new specialty in our hobby might be buying coins we can document previously sold for twice what we paid.&nbsp; Vest pocket dealers need love, too.&nbsp; What would YOU pay for that $8k coin.&nbsp; Who will give that buyer a profit?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
