<p>[QUOTE="Sean5150, post: 2626688, member: 75607"]To expand, most proof coins can be found in a high grade because they are purpose built. Most CLASSIC MS coins have a limit to their grades because the nature of their production. You will not find an MS70 classic coin. You will find modern MS70 coins in abundance because of the advances in minting technology. You will also find an abundance of PF70 modern coins because of advances in minting technology. So a PF60 modern coin would not be worth as much as a MS70 modern coin UNLESS IT HAS A LOW MINTAGE, which is another variable. A PF60 classic coin can be worth far more than an MS70 modern coin BECAUSE OF THE SCARCITY. This can be expanded ad infinitum because EACH COIN has many variables that will make it valuable or worthless. Your question cannot be answered because there is not enough information in it to make an answer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
