<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tommyc03, post: 3012050, member: 17665&quot;]Once you get on enough mailing lists you will see these quite often. The American Mint (no relationship to any U.S. government entity) Hamilton Mint, Littleton Coin Co., Mystic Stamp Co., (owned by Littleton) Things You Never Knew Existed (catalog Co.) Heartland America and many others still sell these to unsuspecting people who think they would have something valuable just because it has the word gold, platinum, silver or rhodium plating attached to it. It&#039;s long been a buyer beware situation. &quot; A fool and their money...&quot;.&nbsp; These items will never be worth much more than face value in most cases. I will never tell anyone what to collect if they like something. But I will say stay away if you possibly can. It&#039;s money best spent on real collectible coins. On the other hand there are some really nice, older counter stamped coins that can be very interesting and valuable. Researching&nbsp; is your best guide. And coming here to ask, of course.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
