Nor can they tell the difference between a 65 and 66, or 40 and 45, or a 6 and an 8. Face it, most people do not know how to grade correctly. </p><p><br /></p><p>So why should they pay stupid money for a modern bullion coin that only a small handful of collectors will buy ? If you like the coins and want to collect them - Great ! More power to you. But don&#039;t be stupid about it. Don&#039;t pay over $1000 for one of them graded 70 when you can get the same coin graded 69 for a little more than the value of the silver. Especially when history says that value will not stay that high.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
