<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 138831, member: 3011&quot;]The word &quot;better&quot; is very subjective.&nbsp; If you look at the mintages for AGEs, there is just about always a greater number of uncirculated coins compared to proof coins.&nbsp; So the proof coins are almost always more valuable unless there is some sort of abnormal event such as the 1999W uncirculated coins made from proof dies.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The proofs will start out costing more, and will probably end up being more valuable.&nbsp; It&#039;s a coin flip as to which one will be &quot;better.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m inclined to wait a bit and buy the coin slabbed as MS69 or proof 69 when these become available.&nbsp; I think the authentication and grading is worth a few extra bucks in the long run.&nbsp; I always suspect that dealers pick out all of the best coins to be slabbed and sell the inferior coins raw.&nbsp; But that&#039;s just me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
