Cherrypicking dealer stock, such as the boxes of slabbed coins or 2x2's, generally requires that you have a lot of back and forth interaction with the dealer.

This means instant gains in my investment over my purchase price. You expose yourself to a greater chance of numismatic value if you diversify your bullion collection. Maybe a few of your bullion coins will end up having some true rare coin appeal.
