<p>[QUOTE="SirCharlie, post: 534486, member: 17255"]You bring up a good point. In my opinion, I think the mint produces too many of almost everything. There is suppose to be a great difference between what we carry in our pockets, and what coin collectors keep. If they produce too many, then they are not really collectables, they are bullion, or else they are just put away and not used, like the Sacs and Kennedy halves. If they didn't produce so many of them, then yes, the coins bought from the mint for $5-$20 will sell for $125 and more, and in my opinion, that is what makes them true collectable coins.</p><p>I think the mint will overproduce the Lincoln silver dollars, making them worth a great deal less that what they should be worth. I think 500,000 is too many, and I feel there should be a limit of 2 per household instead of 100, plus they should not allow dealers to purchase in bulk with the exception of the bullion items.</p><p>I am so pleased with this Lincoln I had to keep one at home just so I could look at it every once in a while.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
