<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 1281646, member: 15019&quot;]There is plenty you can buy with the expectation that it will appreciate in value. For example, modern coins with particularly low mintage if looking at US coins, and low mintage coins from countries that have yet to hit their peak if looking at foreign coins. With modern low mintage coins, you also want to get the ones that are in high mint state.</p><p>This is especially true for bullion coins, as the particularly low mintage ones will have some value protection against dropping bullion prices and added value for rising bullion prices.</p><p>Also keep in mind that if you are buying at book value, retail prices, you have an uphill battle from the start. Whatever coin you are looking for, try to buy it at auction, many times you get them cheaper than retail price.</p><p><br /></p><p>For example, the large cent with the $200 book value you can most likely win on bids for $150 or lower, especially if it&#039;s a more common date. Many dealers on eBay do exactly this - buy them on bids below book value and then relist them at book value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
