<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silverbullion, post: 2219275, member: 57234&quot;]Yes, the term &quot;collector issue&quot; can certainly be abused, but not in all instances and certainly not in this instance. Many collector issue coins do end up at spot, but just as many gain value way and above spot. The fact of the matter is that collector issue coins are not primarily bought to see how close we can get to spot prices. If you do get to buy a collectors issue coin close to spot or at spot, see it as a bonus, not as a given nor destiny for all collector issue coins. Even bullion issue coins come with risks attach to it.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you see collector issue coins as just &quot;silver in a given amount&quot;, then it simply means, you&#039;re one of those who only accept the melt value of the silver as a measure of value. You simply don&#039;t value all the time and additional expense that went into special finishes, the art work, the special packaging, etc. You also fail to understand that a lower mintage normally means a higher production cost per unit/coin. This is why you&#039;re only prepared to pay for a collector issue coin when you can buy it close to spot.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is the long and short of it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
