<p>[QUOTE="Rick B, post: 4639522, member: 113624"]I wonder if any coin big wigs made a fortune when the system changed from one uncirculated category to eleven. What if you had a large collection of UNC coins back when there was just "UNC". I see in the red book that a coin valued at $10 in Unc could suddenly, when the MS60-70 system came into being, be worth far more. As you move up from MS60 to MS70, the values go up exponentially. A $10 MS60 coin could be $1000 or more in MS70. So if you had a large UNC collection that you paid low prices for, and a bunch of them could suddenly be graded as MS65 or whatever, what a windfall! </p><p>Just a thought. I wonder if there was a lot of this happening.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
