[QUOTE="deepblue, post: 326323, member: 1702"] Hi, Guys could i throw my 2 cents worth in here as a coin collector for over 40 years and holder of some of the top PCGS coin sets. You would be much better off just specializing on one type of coins be it pre decimal or decimal. It is very hard to complete some sets, also very expensive when each coin cost $25 to grade at PCGS this is for decimal coins. Pre decimals are $35 and when the value of the coin goes up so does the price to around $125. There has been one dealer that sent over 10,000 coins to the USA for grading and is selling the on Ebay this has altered the value of a lot of the lesser quality coins. To collect a top grade set by PCGS of 6 coins could set you back by $12,000 dollars as a PCGS PPR70 coin usually sells for about $3000. The other alternative is to send multiples of the coins over to hope and get good grades, expensive and risky. Hope this helps just collect for the joy of collecting and keep because they mean something to you. I can assure you when you come to sell them the dealers will never give you what they are worth. cheers db [/QUOTE]
