<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mralexanderb, post: 1207194, member: 7851&quot;]When you can&#039;t tell the difference between a 69 coin from a 70, then you should just keep the coins you get from the US Mint and be happy with them. Last year, I sent in to, NGC, 5 2006 Reverse Proof ASE coins that never left their holders. I studied them, and, I could not discern ANY difference between them. I was really curious. Well, after all the expense, I got 3 Rev Proof 70&#039;s and 2 Rev. Proof 69&#039;s. Or visa versa.</p><p>Now, the only factor is what I can sell them for. But I don&#039;t really want to sell them now. I, still, cannot tell why any of these coins differ from the rest.</p><p><br /></p><p>I buy from the US Mint, and keep them in the OGP, except when they go to the bank safe deposit box. I&#039;ve got a large bag of OPG&#039;s that sit in a closet. </p><p><br /></p><p>The ASE reverse proofs were the only coins I&#039;ve ever sent in for a grade, rather than for an authentication of the coin, or a variety designation.</p><p><br /></p><p>I agree with TopcatCoin&#039;s #5 post. If you collect moderns, then you need to have the OGP. Then grade what you feel you need to.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
