<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 137530, member: 4626"]I'm a collector, not an investor, lol... I'd love it if my coins became more valuable in the future but even if they never become worth a penny more than they are today, or even if their value goes down, I'm happy with my collection. However I don't have any realistic belief that the Westward Journey or the Return to Monticello nickels will become significantly more valuable in my lifetime except for extremely high condition ones; there's just way too many of them and too many people are saving them. I'm just barely old enough to remmeber people saving any of the bicentennial quarters they found, expecting them to become valuable some day... except in very high condition none of them are worth more than face value, 30 years later. I expect the same will be true of the nickels and state quarters. If you like to have a bunch, more power to you... I have a roll of the bison design myself, just because I like the design... but if you think it will pay off as an investment in your lifetime, you're likely mistaken. If anything they will become less valuable when the excitement over them dies down. There's too many of them, and too many people are saving them... the same reason why National Geographics since about 1940 never go up in value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
