<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Burgess, post: 8200005, member: 105098&quot;]Blah.&nbsp; The proof and uncirculated Silver eagles while silver, and I suppose popular, rarely make back their purchase price and doubtful they make back the purchase price now with the big price increases of the past year.</p><p><br /></p><p>I get it why people would all race to enroll for them, but I also been buying proof silver eagles for a long time and only ever really get ahead on them when silver runs up in price.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you collect silver eagles that&#039;s great, I can take them or leave them and I&#039;m not a completist when it comes to them. I&#039;ll continue picking up the lower mintage or special finish ones that I like that aren&#039;t on enrollments. Besides I&#039;m sure most of that enrollment is filled up with the resellers anyways looking to grade and flip with a markup we all know who they are, if I won&#039;t pay at issued price, I&#039;m not gonna be buying from them either for even more money.</p><p>And yeah, if the mint wants to be dumb and make hundreds of thousands of them, BUT not enough to meet even the enrollment demand, that&#039;s their prerogative. But I personally won&#039;t be the sucker falling for the &quot;get it while you can! Join the club!&quot; Marketing ploy. They will still be everywhere for sale, the majority won&#039;t make it into collector hands directly and will be sold on the secondary market if people will pay the price.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a dumb game and I&#039;m not playing it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
