It would be a neat way to show the premium assigned to different coins. Lets say you want to invest $20K over so many years. You want maybe 10 coins so buy the best coin you can for $2000 each.

IMO, if you can get an MS70 or best grade ever for less than your single coin budget, then I wouldn't consider it a rare key date, or you budget is just unbelievably impressive.
