<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgandude11, post: 1901761, member: 37839&quot;]As one person put it, I should change my avatar to Peacedude, with my recent forray into the Peace Dollar venue (although this is nothing new to me, as I have always collected Peace Dollars).&nbsp; The one thing I will say about looking for type, or partial set, or even full set coins is that grade is obviously important.&nbsp; The desired grade is determined by budget.&nbsp; However, in getting these Peace Dollars (I won&#039;t go for the entire series, as I have owned the entire series before and sold it years ago), eye appeal is huge.&nbsp; In getting the two key dates, I was originally going to get very nice MS 61-62 coins for 1921 and 1928.&nbsp; However, try finding an extremely nice coin of those dates in that condition--all the ones I checked out were not that attractive.&nbsp; I ended up with both in AU-58 ( if you looked at the two, you&#039;d swear they were MS 63) and am extremely happy with the AU 58 eye appeal.&nbsp;&nbsp; They are gorgeous coins, and I didn&#039;t spend a ton of money for a coin that wasn&#039;t attractive.&nbsp;&nbsp; For the common dates, I have chosen to go for ones with light tone in MS 65 or 65+, as that is a great value over MS 66 coins, and frequently has more eye appeal for the dollar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
