I'll about guarantee the Classic WON'T be. Or if it is problem free it will be more like a low end VF.


It's from a reputable dealer will full return privileges. When a Coin World ad states XF and problem free, I'd except nothing less.

For $800 an 1812 or 1814 can be purchased in XF. I'm sure it would one of these dates.

Doubtful, true problem free XF even of those dates will usually bring $1400 to $1600 at auction. Why would the dealer sell it for half market? Yes you can get one of those dates with XF sharpness for $800, but it will be dark and at least somewhat porous, and possibly showing some light oorrosion.

Another thing you could do is to start with lower grades for the tougher ones, then gradually replace them...

Would be more fun!


Exactly what I like to do. Not a real big person on type sets or collections but way, way back I purchsed a plastic sheet for the 20th Century Type Set. Filled it with just about anything. Over the years I have slowly improved the grades of each coin. No big hurry though since I started it about 20 or more years ago.
