[QUOTE="Treashunt, post: 167537, member: 6763"]I love to cherry pick coins and varieties. Three years ago, after looking for years, within three months, I was able to cherry pick three (yes 3) 1858/7 flying eagle cents at a coin show, from three different dealers. They are now each in ANACS slabs: first: F-15, cost $20; XF-45, light clean on obverse: cost $100; and a VF-20, ANACS says corroded, but VERY slight, cost: $15. Also, I cherried, are you ready: 1909 S, VDB, as a 1909 S, now in a NGC F-12 slab, cost: $40, but that was in 1996. And other pieces. Varieties, the way to go. There are a lot of others, like the 1942/1 D that I pulled from a bag of junk silver, just before it was gong to be dumped two years ago for .50. Three dealers told me that I had the wrong piece, so I sent it to NGC. Now in an NGC XF-45 holder. Still looking for a 1901 S quarter.[/QUOTE]
