To crack out or not?
Hello all!
I've been contemplating upgrading my NGC membership, but am not sure if I should crack some Franklins out of their ICG MS65 holders... Years I have are 1959, 1958D, 1959, 1959D, 1960, 1960D, 1961 & 1962. I paid no more than $25 for each of them. Below is the 1960D that would be worth the most. Do you think this one would still grade MS65 w/ NGC?
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Happy collecting!

"best of the best" in terms of popularity, scarcity and affordability?
It may just be my jealousy speaking, but when have $500+ coins become known as "affordable"? I got NGC's email today about the new Top 50 label, so I decided to start my set. I own only 1 coin from the set (lowest valued 1 at that) and do not foresee owning any of the others.
I'd like to see a "poor man's top 50" set that has truly affordable common modern coins. No need to offer annual awards for them, just a fun set tha
Procrastination can rule for only so long
I finally added pics to all of my sets. I settled on macro mode, natural daylight and no flash. Will still play with settings to see if anything else helps the quality. I'd like to thank NGC for allowing > 200kb pics! Much easier not having to crop & resize.
Happy collecting, all!
and an MS70 New Year to all!
Please don't take offense to the title: I consider myself an equal opportunity offender.
But seriously, I really hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday and wish nothing but high grades and low bid wins in the coming year...
It's about time!
I've been around here for over a year and finally decided to write a journal. I've been collecting coins since high school. For the past 2 years I have concentrated on graded coins. Like most others, I like ASE's, but also like modern commems. I have limited disposable income, so I never pay full price for anything. Case in point: my first PF70 snag. 2011 Army 50c. $30 at local coin show.
I hope to add more coin pics next week while on vacation.
Thanks for stopping by!
