The folks at FUN and in the professional coin magazines and blogs seem to all be in agreement that it is worse than today. I wasn't collecting...
You really think that ? You have the Chinese mass-producing coins and even bullion which I don't think was the case in the 1960's. I think the...

I think the Morgan series could be one that suffers from oversupply because there are so many of them and I am not sure that today's investors...

They got hurt too, and nobody told anybody to buy. The price quadrupled in 4 months, I don't know where people thought it was going to, $1,000 an...
I know....I get it...but so much of what you read nowadays is by people writing something without doing their research (not you, the original...
