<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JrCoin, post: 653131, member: 18390&quot;]Thanks for the great informative posts, I&#039;m really learning a lot here.&nbsp; I collect cents purely as a numismatic pursuit, but I was suprised at the number of people out there hoarding pre-82 cents.&nbsp; I understand that it is the only coin out there in U.S. circulation that is plentiful and worth more in metal content than its official tender, but it seems you would have to have literally tons of them for the endeavor to even begin to pay off.&nbsp; Also there is some speculation as to the discontinuation of the cent.&nbsp; From what I understand this has been an &quot;old&quot; debate going on for &quot;a long time&quot; but I&#039;m still pretty new to all this.&nbsp; Would this hoarding affect numismatic value?&nbsp; It seems to me that quantity will never beat quality but if I had been around to hoard silver coinage back in the 50s that would have been a solid investment.&nbsp; Particularly if said hoard was sold in the 80s boom.&nbsp; The website that really sparked my curiousity, aside from ebay itself was this forum <a href="http://realcent.forumco.com/default.asp" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://realcent.forumco.com/default.asp" rel="nofollow">http://realcent.forumco.com/default.asp</a></p><p>I thank you for all your feedback...and look forward to more!&nbsp; Personally I&#039;m actively pursuing ASEs and pre-64 us silver, I still think silver is where the best return will be realized right now.&nbsp; Just an opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
