Hi - I'm new to this group.

I bought the 7 silver 1887 jubilee head coins some years ago - Over time these have developed an equal toning.

Four of these are graded EF but the other 3, unfortunately,  are only graded as VF.

My question is:

Do I buy 3 EF coins to make them all the same grade or would doing this devalue the set  as the toning wont be the same

Thanks in advance.

I would upgrade, but take your time to get coins with a similar tone, you should have plenty of choice.

Good luck,

Jerry

I would say go also cos once it is in your mind about upgrade, you will always think about it until it's upgraded.  Take time to search for a similar tone and reasonably priced ones.
