Sorry but Im not just gonna liquidate all your coins with no business. You call and do some trading and get into some 2010 Eagles or UHR Double Eagles or something as well, yes, we can cut you a check for the difference. If you wanna buy on ebay, then go ahead, but dont be surprised when what you get has been cleaned or isnt what its suppose to be. We all know that risk.
ok, enough of the BS then please. I'm sorry if this isn't quite in the forum rules but I'm calling it now. I don't know what your motivation was in coming here but I have a few guesses. Most of the people here haven't just fallen off of the turnip truck. The ones who have we try to nurture and inform and not bilk with overpriced investments. Come be a member here please, participate, inform and be informed... but please don't try to blow smoke, we are going to call it each and every time. As a person who has to explain "Coin Investment Companies" to little old ladies all the time and see their faces when they have just been crushed... I'm pretty biased in situations like these.
All indications say you want to leave your calling card, are trying to drum up business. My point is, I'm sure you didn't come on this forum just to share ideas on coins that turn profits. So to steal from another post that you had. What are your intentions?
My intentions are to help people and educate people. I believe my post was targeting investors, not so called "Know-It-Alls". Thats fine if you dont agree with what I say, but I know I have told you the truth. If people decide to not take what I say into consideration, then so be it. There are a few people that have messaged me with questions or comments about what I have said, and I have never once told them to give me all their money or so on. I do not know what your intentions are with coins, and if you collect then thats fine. I am just saying coins are an avenue for making money. Whether or not a person wants to invest is their sole decision not mine. And about labeling me as your average coin company, there is a difference. I can actually use to word investment, they cant. I left a company simply because of the false speculations and bogus deals they were selling which is why we started this company. So agree or disagree all you would like, it makes me no nevermind. You can go your way and I can go mine. But dont judge me because my intentions on what I do with coins differ from yours.
Sorry but most people on this forum won't agree with what you say. We are collectors, hoarders, hobbyists and devotees to the hobby. Between all of us there are millenniums of experience, knowledge. We solely love the hobby and thrill of collecting with its challenges and complications.
With the current economic situation you would be hard pressed to make Anything, Long term i would say yes as things improve!!
I agree a person can invest in coins. Then again you can invest in dirt too. It doesn't mean it's a good investment. If there's any doubt about the perils to investing in coins just look at any of the best rare coin collections. Ask dan holmes how much he "made" from his most complete set of early cents ever assembled. I think you might be surprsed at how much he lost. Guy
Ok that is well and good. Now tell me the coins that are low now that later will pop up like that. It is easy to look into the past and see what has already gone up.
After reading through most of the thread and I may have missed it but I'd say chances are 99.99% that JenkinsCody is a NumisNetwork Representative. Come on Cody I'm right aren't I. I've been hit oh at least 50 times now from different individuals and can smell it a mile away. LOL
You may want to tone it down a bit. The numismatic experience on this board is far greater than yours. I do not mean that in a demeaning way at all it is simply a fact. There are individuals who post here who are the best and brightest in numismatics today.
Are you claiming that PCGS slabs cleaned coins as ms70? That is what you just said here.:goofer: You are just messing with us.
Good lively debate. As stated, a good investment is in the eyes of the investor. If you want to invest in it, it makes you money, etc, etc, then it is a good investment. I think coins can be a good investment vehicle if you find a "way" to do it. Coins, in an investment sense, are just another vehicle with a market that decides there is a value based on supply and demand both real and perceived, the same as any commodity, stock, etc. Like someone said, dirt can be a good investment. I am sure there are probably publicly traded companies that deal in fill dirt, top soil, etc. In the right investment market, buying stock in those companies would be a good investment in other times, not. Now I, like many on these forums, do not collect coins for investment purposes. I just like finding coins that interest me. In fact, I am considering starting a collection of community currencies (the concept interests me), which, will have zero value, monetary or otherwise, outside the communites that produce them. It's just interesting. My two cents, for what it's worth.
I would agree that investing in coin knowledge is an Outstanding investment, it will at least afford you the assurance of not getting completely taken into a bad deal ( i.e. believing in the OP ).
...hmmmm doesn't this all sound vaguely familiar??? No... it sounds almost identical!!! Last time I heard this it was from BNB. I wonder if jenkins and jay are related???
