[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 164492, member: 705"]Andy--I was in a hurry earlier and thought I would come back and post a longer post on your questions-- There are many Grading companie out there that are out there to part you with your money---I would suggest staying with PCGS/NGC/ANACS/ICG ICG and ANACS will tend to be alittle lose when it comes to grading coins dated after 1964--- Its not really a personal preference---no one knows what will go up or down--it all comes into the market---if the coin is easy to find in good number and any grade the price won't move that much---now if its a harder to find coin then price will go up---alot of things can go into that---not just the mintage---a coin with over 500,000 can be $$$....and a coin with under 1000 can go for the same price. What it takes it for someone to watch the market and learn what is moving and what isn't---even then you can lose your shirt trying to beat the market at its game---if you like coins I would suggest collecting them and collecting the ones you like---not because it might go up--but because you like it. Colorized quarters and CAM are 2 thing totaly---the colorized are done OUTSIDE the mint--they are damged--the CAM is frost that comes from being struck with special dies and minted with special treatment. If you like them I would suggest that is what you collect---don't look at the resale value--if you want an investment--DON'T look at coins is my suggestion. Do a search of the forum for Investment and read what you find... I hope this helps---- Speedy[/QUOTE]
