<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 8102421, member: 106826"]It is interesting that folks will pay what they will for reasons unknown. I've thrown it out here a couple times, but one fellow enthusiast built a Jefferson set using environmentally damage coins. To keep the look consistent, he traded with folks, 'nicer' coins for ones that matched the theme he was after. It could be that this particular coin was the 'right' one for this collector...had to have it and paid to have it. Might sound crazy, but if something escaped you...such as a particular coin with a crack...you might pay more. And that would be fine. No judgment really...although some folks might be taken back initially and make a comment that way. But to each their own.</p><p><br /></p><p>Low ball sets are pretty cool, especially a balanced set. If you noticed, it's hard to find worn Buffalo nickels from the 30s. If you were building a set of worn, lowball nickels, you might have to wait a bit for one to come up for sale, and if it fills a hole, you might be willing to pay a premium.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
