[QUOTE="jcakcoin, post: 1119425, member: 29209"]As I am searching for [B]modern coins[/B] on Ebay, I don't understand something. Why does an MS69 coin look identical to an MS70 coin? I know the saying, buy the coin, not the slab, but it seems a little bit confusing when two near-exact coins are being sold at way different prices Ebay Cheapest Prices (All NGC) For example: 2010 ASE PF69 = $57 total 2010 ASE PF70 = $85 total Another one: 2010 America the Beautiful Clad Set PF69 = $59 total 2010 America the Beautiful Clad Set PF70 = $135 total Why are the prices so different for a microscopic scratch on the coin, to one without it? Another two questions to ask, About NGC coins: Why do they have different labels for the same coin (ASEs + ATBs especially)? And, I don't understand why Ebay sellers sell one label type at a higher price than a different labeled one, I mean, it's the same coin!.:confused: It seems to say that the saying "Buy the coin, not the slab" is not being listened to as much nowadays[/QUOTE]
