<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bahabully, post: 1294112, member: 17555&quot;]If you are set of putting them into a book and NOT keeping them in the TPG holder, then I would not recommend you buy them at the premium a TPG holdered coin will demand over it&#039;s equivalent in raw.&nbsp;&nbsp; Cracking them out and then putting them into a less secure environment almost always net you a loss in quality of the coin over time and associated $&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>I like the idea of working the &#039;bay to aquire raw samples to fill you book at a decent price.&nbsp; Focus on true auctioned coins and try to stay away for BIN (buy it now) offerings as you&#039;ll likely get a better price if you shop only true auctions and be patient in your aquisitions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Peace dollars are frequently offered raw in rough form,, either brutally cleaned or with other problems.&nbsp; These coins are often sold at discount, and some are actually not that bad looking.&nbsp; So if you plan to house these in a book over time, they may actually &quot;appreciate&quot; in value as a natural tone overlays old cleanings and makes these coins market acceptable again......</p><p><br /></p><p>In the end, it depends on the size of your wallet and what makes you happy as you enjoy this wonderful hobby.</p><p><br /></p><p>Enjoy ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
