<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 898926, member: 11854&quot;]No offense is meant, but from what I have read thus far, I would suggest <i>strongly </i> that you learn a whole heck of a lot more about the hobby-industry before going off and purchasing these pieces.&nbsp; You appear to be quite new to coins and likely do not understand well the concepts of grading, eye appeal, problem coins, pricing and, most importantly in this thread, I don&#039;t believe you have a good grasp of what might make a coin a &quot;key&quot; vs. a low mintage.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The coins you have listed would overall be considered by me to be dogs as far as investment is concerned.&nbsp; They are quite low in grade, which by itself does not mean they are not worth owning, but these are from modern sets where higher graded coins are available by the bucketful for not all that much more money.&nbsp; The best example of this is the 1938-D WLH that has a <i>Greysheet </i> bid of $60 in your target G4, but only rises to $90 in F12 or $110 in VF20.&nbsp; This coin is available <i>all the time </i> in coin shops and online.&nbsp; It is also the perfect example of a coin that had a <i>low mintage, </i> but could not in any way be considered &quot;key&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Again, I mean no offense, but I can see your $850 wallet being worth significantly less in terms of your &quot;investments&quot; is you do not learn this hobby-industry much better.&nbsp; Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
