<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samjimmy, post: 183817, member: 3813&quot;]IMHO, you should buy what you like, be it the the very best graded, super expensive coin, or what are commonly referred to as &quot;culls&quot; coins of little value, very worn, bent, etc.&nbsp; If you do this and not get caught up in other things, you will be very satisfied (because you are getting what you want, as opposed to getting what you think others want).</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no problem getting cleaned, bent, dinged coins myself.&nbsp; In fact, some of my very favorites are culls (I have a bag of them) that I can hold and show others.&nbsp; Of course I equally like some of my other more mint ones to show as examples of what the coin looked like (sometimes a worn coin doesn&#039;t show enough detail to really get the point across).</p><p><br /></p><p>What you don&#039;t want to do is overpay for a problem coin, because it&#039;s non-problem counterpart is worth more, and although you might not buy to sell, it&#039;s nice not to lose one&#039;s shirt if one does decide to sell the coin.&nbsp; You also don&#039;t want to get stuck in the cycle of buying lower grade coins than you want, with the intent of buying higher grade ones to replace them later.&nbsp; Buy the grade you want the first time, even if it means waiting a bit until you can afford it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Be happy with what you buy and the price you pay and you will enjoy it more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
