[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 921486, member: 17557"]I wish I would've understood the concept that the MS70, First-Strike, and Early Release labels really don't mean jack diddly #@$% when it comes to American Silver Eagles. There is absolutely no reason to pay for a graded piece of bullion if you can get a raw one for less money. I understand the registry aspect of collecting these, totally get it. But, the smarter route would be to just choose another series, versus buying 40 something ASE's proof and unc, and spending so much money, when you could pick them up raw for less. I paid quite a bit of my money in early 2009 when I joined this site, for ASE's that were NGC graded at MS69. Most I had at one time was around 5 or 6, sticking around this site for a little while made me realize I needed to sell them things and fast. I lost money on them. First Strike and Early Release are just two fancy titles that do nothing for a coin. It is just a quick and easy way for TPG's to make money. Don't get sucked into it.[/QUOTE]
