<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 2085050, member: 19065"]Meh... Your logic assumes one is an informed collector of modern NIFC US coins. How often do you (an infromed collector) find NIFC coins in circulation? Most people wouldn't know the difference because most are not collectors and most are not aware that such sets even exist. For most people, it's a shiny new coin. With the vast amount of varieties in design from year to year now common place, from presidents to Native American designs, the surface treatment alone isn't going to be a clue to non-collectors. A golden dollar that hardly circulates in the first place is not even common enough across the US for the population to identify such differences. A dollar coin and a paper dollar are all the same, something to spend and nothing much special. Or as I said a matter of perspective, hence who you are-- a collector who knows and cares, or a non-collector who doesn't and just spends them for what they are.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
