Message:: [QUOTE="coloradobryan, post: 2159526, member: 74172"]I was looking at the PCGS3000 index, and over the last year, it has lost nearly 2k in value. The stock market on the other hand, has gone up around 1500 points in the last year. That is not to say that no-one has made money in the coin market over the last year. I believe the best way to make money in the coin market is A:Being able to grade as well (ok, this can be debated, but they do set the market IE PCGS, regardless of the grading) as the top TPG's and know what the coin will bring on the market in that respective slab if you were to get it graded. As we all know, Many sellers are NOT good at grading, or pricing. They try to sell to the less experienced, coins that are not real or have been cleaned.. In other words, you have to know your stuff to know where you can add value and turn a profit. B. Die Varieties. Those who know their varieties can often add value and turn a profit by cherrypicking the right coins. I'm sure most of us here have done that a few times.[/QUOTE]
