<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Speedy, post: 71621, member: 705&quot;]Wrong...you have not read the right things...collectors back inthe 50&#039;s and before always took care of their coins...that is if they were real collectors...the ones you talk about were &quot;collector&quot; but more than lilkey today we wouldn&#039;t call them collectors...more like hoarders.</p><p><br /></p><p>How do you still get a MS63 1853 Large Cent if someone didn&#039;t care for it and collect it and make sure nothing happened to it like you said...if what you said happened all of the coins from years back would be in bad shape...today we can still get a MS grade of almost any coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Back in the 50&#039;s they still graded...but it wasn&#039;t what it is now...they only had about 5 grades...</p><p><br /></p><p>Speedy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
