<p>[QUOTE="Clint, post: 1344256, member: 34620"]I sure appreciate your persistence in opposition and greatly value reading your opinion, so please keep it up.

Sure, it may be tiny compared to the total population, but still significant. Consider the number of people who'd want to preserve value in PMs, and then consider entering the coin market. I think that blurs the line between junk 90% and bullion. The blurring goes both ways. Junk gets closer to spot, and premiums increase on bullion. It is only natural in an environment like this that comparatively more rare bullion types/years would increase in value, notably the 25th ASEs.

I think the disagreement in question is not unlike what I recently read in a thread about toned Morgans, in which one member compared rainbows to a CareBear catalogue. Different strokes.
