Is the market about to heat up?

Agreed - the people who still have discretionary income don't want low-end material, plus a certain disenchantment with gold and silver, contrary to expectations. This is why I became a stacker 4 years ago, time to modify the mix a little bit.

Practice saying this with a straight face: "Yep, Judge, bought her at the flea market...ain't she a beauty??"

 

In my opinion more and more collectors are dying out and less and less being born. Prices will continue to fall. I-phones are in more demand. The now basement sized gatherings of collectors will grow smaller and smaller until there are only bullion buyers with their own personal collections.

 

So if that's true I'm going to have one sweet type set when all is said and done.

 

Actually from what I read, coin collectors have been successful at getting newer generations interested in coins. It is no longer the hobby of older men. I have had a lot of women buying coins from me, possibly sometimes for their kids. Some of the people that have bought inexpensive coins off me seem like kids.
