Dime Pcgs
Im looming to expand my coin collection into getting graded coins. So I want some advice?
I want so start buying some graded examples of coins penny, nickle, dime ect. All the coins are graded by PCGS and sold under list value, however I have the choice of getting proofs graded PR69 or PR70. What should I get? would it be worth getting the PR70 vs the PR69s and what coins are likely to go up in value in the future.
Also should I but the silver or clad proof? Some people told me that silver is not a real coin while the clad ones represent real coin specimens.
For issues in the last ten years or so, PR70 populations are large enough for the prices to have come down to nearly the levels of older PR69s, and the difference in price between these newer PR69s and PR70s is not that great, so you should buy the PR70. With older coins, PR70s are rare and expensive and for the collector with deep pockets, something most of us aren’t. So, you should buy the highest grade you can afford.
Whoever told you a silver coin is not a real coin is an idiot. You’re talking about proofs. All proofs, whether clad or silver, are made for collectors. Clad business strikes are the coins made for circulation, and they are rare in high grade (at least, until the last few years), but those do not carry the PR designation. They are MS (mint state) coins, which are completely separate from proofs. Some collectors of the American silver and gold Eagles, state quarters and presidential dollars insist that the only truly complete set consists of both business strikes and proofs, and technically that’s true, but if you prefer just the proofs, there’s nothing wrong with that.
Do a lot of research before you start to buy. Track eBay sales for at least a month on what you’re thinking about buying, and compare those prices to store dealers, coin show dealers and online dealers. In most cases, you’ll buy cheaper on eBay. Just don’t forget about the shipping costs.
