[QUOTE="kanga, post: 691213, member: 9270"]"Quality" is a subjective term. Have you pinned it down more specifically? Basically I'm saying make sure you've specifically defined to yourself what you are after. For instance you might say that your Franklins will be MS-63 or better. Or you might go for a matched set ([U]all[/U] Frankins will be MS-64). And of course you have to consider Franklins with FBLs. Then when you move back in time you may have to have a new definition for Walkers. Plan all this out ahead of time. Nothing bothers me personally more than buying a coin, then at a later date buying a better one just because I didn't think ahead. And then there's the issue of slabbed coins. [B]LOTS[/B] of opinions there. I'm personally pro-slab, but that has a lot to do with my particular interests and age.[/QUOTE]
