[QUOTE="Morgan1878, post: 606925, member: 17869"]My observations on market conditions are: 1. Spot price of silver is rising, I believe it will rise more in the next six months. 2. Price of collectible Morgans is flat for most dates/conditions and up for a few dates/conditions. This is consistent with the trend in other collectibles such as art, fine wine and rare cars. Generally, top prices for collectibles occur at the peak of economic cycles. I don't expect prices on Morgans to rise substantially soon, so I believe that the spread between spot and collectibles could widen. I have years of investing experience, my day job is at an investment firm/Swiss bank. One thing I have learned is that if a strategy starts to crumble, leave your ego at the door and change your plan. Flexibility has saved my bacon more than once. Regardless of which way spot silver goes, if I see collectible Morgans I want to buy (slabbed or not, but likely slabbed), I will sell enough "melt" to cover these purchases. Again, I am not in a hurry. I see coin-collecting as something to enjoy, not an additional source of stress. This forum is particularly enjoyable, responses from people like yourself are well thought out and provide insight into areas that I have questions about.[/QUOTE]
