[QUOTE="Dougmeister, post: 2375524, member: 56842"]I am a "get the most bang for the buck" kind of guy. I aim to purchase at the grade just before the price takes a steep climb. [LIST] [*]I'm not interested in varieties or key dates. [*]I just want a nice example for my U.S. Type Set. [*]I'd prefer red or red/brown; I realize it will cost more. [*]It must be slabbed. [/LIST] [B]1) Should I go for MS or Proof? Is that just a personal preference?[/B] It looks to me like: * MS common years are 1899-1909 * PF common years are 1865-1868 and 1873-1876 [B]2) Are those assumptions correct?[/B] It looks like the first "big" jump in price for MS is from MS64 to MS65. It looks like the first "big" jump in price for PR is from PR63 to PR64. I'm looking to spend $100-$200, maybe a little more. [B]3) Is this possible, and are the above statements correct?[/B][/QUOTE]
