<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ddddd, post: 3496632, member: 22377&quot;]I&#039;m not currently working on any graded sets, so the upgrade option has not been something to think about lately. When I had a Proof Franklin collection, I started with generic coins and eventually upgraded to Cameo/DCAM examples as I delved deeper into the series. </p><p><br /></p><p>I do have a raw Dansco Type Set and I have upgraded some coins there. The process is simple: if I find a more eye-appealing coin at a reasonable price (to me) and I&#039;m not yet fully satisfied with the current example, then I will upgrade.</p><p><br /></p><p>In general, I agree with [USER=78244]@TypeCoin971793[/USER] that finding the right coin the first time around is often the most economical method. The only time I&#039;d consider picking up a coin to upgrade later is if the price is low enough (where it will be relatively easy to sell when an upgrade comes along...note: this can still be risky as the market can always turn on that coin) or if it is something rare (where you can&#039;t be certain that an upgrade will show up).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
